Английская Википедия:Bellefields (Croom, Maryland)
Bellefields is a manor house located in Croom, Prince George's County, Maryland. It was constructed about 1720. It is a brick structure in Flemish bond with random glazed headers, and two stories over a high basement. The structure is rectangular, with gabled roof sections, paired interior end chimneys, a front center entrance, wide raised belt course above the first floor, flat arched openings, and flanking symmetrical single-story wings. It is in the Georgian style. It was the home of Patrick Sim, Scottish immigrant and of his son, Col. Joseph Sim, Maryland patriot.[1]
History
Later, sometime after 1849, William Duckett Bowie lived there with his second wife.[2][3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[4] It was removed from the National Register of Historic Places on May 12, 1986.[5][6]
On August 31, 2021, three of the farm's 39 zebras escaped from the farm and began wandering around the woods of Upper Marlboro.[7][8][9] In September, one of the zebras died in an illegal snare trap.[10][11] In October, the Maryland Department of the Environment and the Prince George's County Animal Services announced a plan to use two zebras from the herd at Bellefields to lure and corral the zebras back to the farm.[12] Three animal cruelty charges were filed against the farm's owner on October 20.[13] On December 15, the two remaining zebras were captured and returned to the farm.[14][15]
