Sloan–Parker House photo 1
The Sloan–Parker House, a historic stone residence built in the late 18th century, is located in the picturesque Mill Creek valley of West Virginia. Originally constructed around 1790 by Richard Sloan, an Irish immigrant, the house has a rich history, including its role as a stagecoach stop and a polling station during the Civil War. The property, which has been in the Parker family since 1854, features a thick stone structure and a wooden addition, along with a large barn and a nearby cemetery. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975, the house offers a glimpse into early American life and the region's agricultural heritage, making it an intriguing destination for tourists and researchers alike.
