Webster's Forest is a historic home located at Churchville, Harford County, Maryland, United States. It is a stone house constructed in two sections. The pre-1800 eastern section stands three bays wide, one and a half stories tall above a high basement, with a gambrel roof. Despite severe damage by fire in 1966, exterior walls, chimney, floor structures, most of the flooring, and portions of the cornice of this section remains original. The two-bay, gable-roofed west addition appears to date from the second quarter of the 19th century.[2]

Webster's Forest was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
