The Milton Inn was built in 1740, making it over 250 years old. It is located in Spark in Northern Baltimore County. The house served s a coachstop for Quakers who settled in this area. The Quakers often gathered at the New Gunpowder Meeting House located only a few miles from the Inn. Sparks was once called Priceville, named after the Quaker John Price. There are members of the Price family still living in the area.
