Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Bird's Nest in Shelby County, Kentucky, about Шаблон:Convert south of Cropper, Kentucky, was built c.1850.[1]

It includes Greek Revival style.[2]

The listing included two other contributing buildings and a non-contributing building.[2]

The property, with a house on it, was purchased by Philemon Bird from Amos Hall in 1845. Hall's house was demolished when the Bird's Nest house was built in 1850–51. It was a "family tradition" (meaning there is no documentation) that a Louisville "architect" built the house.

One of Philomen Bird's sons, Henry Bird was given a Шаблон:Convert parcel across Kentucky Route 43. A barn on that property is also listed on the National Register, as Bird Octagonal Mule Barn.[2]

The Bird's Nest house property was passed to another of Philemon's sons, George Caldwell Bird, and then to his son, George Caldwell Bird Jr.[2]

Its listing followed a 1986-87 study of the historic resources of Shelby County.[3]

The buildings have been demolished or otherwise are no longer on the site.[4] A concrete cylinder remains (Шаблон:Coord) and possibly house foundations. A likely former location of house is Шаблон:Coord, at the top of the rise where a metal barn or other building now stands. Another likely location is forward on the rise at Bison corral (photographed) is at Шаблон:Coord. Intersection of driveway with Cropper Rd., location from which Google Streetview is available: Шаблон:Coord. Supposed location of Bird Octagonal Mule Barn: Шаблон:Coord, which has also apparently disappeared.
