| Built by William Schollard around 1836, The Schollard House is probably one of the last Ironmasters' Houses left in Western Pennsylvania. Behind the house are the remnants of one of Mercer County's first early stone pyramidal iron furnaces as well as a waterfall in a beautiful wooded setting. |

| A little-known local landmark, Springfield Falls is located right next to Neshannock Woods. This gorgeous waterfall is nestled in a hemlock and birch ravine formed by glacial meltwater and is accessible via a short trail. |

| The Johnston Tavern, 1831 |
| Just over a nearby hill sits a local historic landmark, the Johnston Tavern. A two-story, post-colonial sandstone center hall building built in 1831 by Arthur Johnston, it served travellers on the Pittsburgh-Mercer Road (Route 19). Circa 1836, it was a popular tavern with the workers of the early Springfield Iron Furnace. It is also recognized as a stop on the Underground Railroad. |
