The Johnston Tavern

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 Springfield Furnace.  It is  recognized as a stop on the
Underground Railroad.
The Ironmaster's House

Built by William Schollard around 1836, The Schollard
House is probably one of the last Ironmasters' Houses
left in Western Pennsylvania.  Once an antique shop, it
has been sitting empty for years.  
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.  The house, furnace site, waterfall and
wooded land are all for sale in one package by a local realtor.  Someone needs to come to the rescue
before this house is gone forever.
Springfield Falls

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.
Old Stone Jail

Mercer County's first jail was built in 1802 as a log building and was replaced with this
stone building in 1810.   There are a handful of early stone buildings in Mercer County.
Raisch Log Cabin

This cabin was hidden in the center of a building that had
numerous additions.  It wasn't discovered until the building was
being dismantled and the cabin was saved.  This cabin dates to
circa 1800.
