Kripplebush Historic District is a national historic district located at Marbletown in Ulster County, New York. The district includes 33 contributing buildings. It encompasses a variety of stone and frame dwellings and outbuildings at the hamlet of Kripplebush.[2] Many of these buildings created a once-functioning commercial area but the stores have been converted to residential use, the one room schoolhouse is now a museum; only the Methodist Church, built in 1857, continues in its original function. Older maps refer to the district as Kripple Bush.
