Samuel Stoner Homestead, also known as Indian Road Farm, Bechtel Farm, and Wiest Dam, is a historic home and farm located at West Manchester Township, York County, Pennsylvania. It was built in three stages: a 1 1/2-story, Germanic influenced limestone banked house built between 1798 and 1801; a second story was added about 1835; and a 2-story, 3-bay stone addition, built about 1850. It measures 62 feet by 30 feet. Also on the property is a small stone and frame springhouse, a small stone smoke house, and a small frame and stone bank barn, all dating to the mid-19th century.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]
