Angle Farm, also known as Maplebrow, is a historic home located at Montgomery Township in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. It is a three-part, two-story, five bay log and timber frame dwelling on a fieldstone foundation. The original three bay log section was built between about 1800 and 1815, and two additional bays were added in the 1850s. It is sheathed in stucco and board-and-batten siding. A modern frame kitchen wing is attached to the rear. It has a one-story full length front porch, added in the 20th century, and a slate roof. Also on the property are a contributing springhouse and frame stable.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
