History and architectural features
This district includes twelve contributing buildings, one contributing site, and five contributing structures. The buildings and structures were constructed roughly from 1800 to 1935, and include the general store, six houses, a mill, a grain elevator, a warehouse, and a Sweitzer barn.[2] Most of the buildings incorporate Late Victorian-style details. The structures are two bridges, a corn crib, a weigh station, and a mill race. The site is the site of a former mill and mill pond.[3]
The General Store also served as a station on the Maryland and Pennsylvania Railroad and the entire historic district is operated by the Ma & Pa Railroad Preservation Society.[4]
