Robinson Rock House Ruin and Plantation Site, also known as Site 31MK272, is a historic archaeological site located in Reedy Creek Park at Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. It is the remnants of an 18th-century stone dwelling of the Colonial period. The Robinson Stone House was probably built between 1780 and 1810.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]
