The Longwood School
On the corner of Valley Hill and Bodine Roads stands the foundation of what is left
of a piece of African American History – The Longwood School.
The stabilization project was completed in October 2005, with re-pointing and setting
of the remaining stones, and capping the top of the structure. A two-car parking area is available and
a historical plaque commemorates this site where the school was built in 1857 as a one-room schoolhouse
for African American children.
