Homestead Farm at Oak Ridge is a historic home and grounds in Clark (Union County) and Edison (Middlesex County), New Jersey, United States, that was listed on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places and National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[1][2] The c. 1750 building and site is located what was once Ash Swamp that played a pivotal role in the American Revolutionary War[3][4] Battle of Short Hills.[5]

The home is associated with Judge Hugh Hartshorne, and is located at Oak Ridge Park.[1] The Squire Hartshorne House and the Robinson Plantation House are other homes from the 17th century located in Clark.[6] In May 2009, the Union County Board of Chosen Freeholders announced its support of preservation of the building site.[3][7]
