Church Quarter is a one-story, log, hall-parlor-plan house that was built about 1843. It remains remarkably intact and unspoiled, a rare survivor of what was once a common house type. Standing on Old Ridge Road, one of the earliest thoroughfares in Hanover County, Church Quarter is one of the best-preserved antebellum log structures in central Virginia. Important surviving interior features, including hardware, give it special significance. During the Civil War, Stonewall Jackson’s well-documented stop for water contributed to the local importance of the property. Near the main house are the ruins of a sort of orangery dating from about 1900 and known locally as “the flower house.” Old plant material similar to that described in the account of Jackson’s visit survives in the yard. Church Quarter is owned by the Scotchtown Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
