The building was constructed in conjunction with Asbury United Methodist Church built prior to 1860.

The side yard has a shared cemetery for Lodge members with a mix of marked and unmarked graves.

The building resides on a half acre lot provided by Cornelius and Catherine Mack for $16 in 1896.

The modern Maryland Route 32 built in the 1960s parallels Guilford Road and is considered detrimental to the historical character of the site.

In a 2003 historical inventory, the building was listed as vacant and had significant roof damage from a fallen tree and the property boundaries were reduced to a quarter acre.
