Traveling down a back road in West Virginia, I came across a well worn abandoned home…
Home sweet home.
Traveling down a West Virginia backroad, out of the corner of my eye I spotted a well-worn clapboarded house atop a small hill. Traveling down a gravel drive, across a cattle gate, I stopped to admire this beauty that had obviously been disused for quite some time. Constructed circa 1870, it was occupied until 1979 when a newer house was constructed nearby.
Located along the Kentucky River Palisades is a unique but abandoned fluorspar mine turned speakeasy.
There are times when I revisit an old friend and discover something new, such as the case of the long-abandoned Jefferson School in Wheeling, West Virginia. I had not discovered much about the historic structure other than coming upon its demolition in 2013.
Musings in Clarksburg, West Virginia, including stops at the Waldo Hotel, a school and the Holy Rosary Catholic Church.
