York Hill, near Shenandoah Junction, West Virginia is a historic property listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The original log portion of the house was built in the late 1760s by Colonel James Hendricks on a 360-acre (150 ha) tract previously conveyed by Thomas Fairfax, 6th Lord Fairfax of Cameron to Samuel Darke in 1754. From 1796 to 1939 the property was owned by the Snyder family. A limestone addition to the house and other buildings were built between 1802 and 1825, including an 1812 bank barn.[2]
