The Vineyard is a historic home and farm complex located at Bel Air, Harford County, Maryland, United States. It consists of a cluster of buildings on a knoll in the center of a 310-acre (130 ha) working grain and livestock farm. The main house is a large stone structure, the oldest section of which comprises a two-story side stairhall / double parlor dwelling built about 1804. Two bays were added to the old house around 1870. Historically significant outbuildings, include three structures (a dairy/smokehouse, an ice house, and a slave quarter) which may predate the older section of the main building.[2]

The Vineyard was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1]
