ST. STEPHENS CHURCH, Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- Anchored by a 200-year-old manor house surrounded by nearly 400 acres, this historic Virginia estate known as Holly Hill is now truly going to the dogs - and to the cats, rabbits, and many other creatures whose well-being the Richmond SPCA champions and helps safeguard. Thanks to a generous benefactor, the proceeds from the sale of this estate, which is on both the National Register of Historic Places and Virginia Landmarks register, will benefit the local animal welfare non-profit, according to auction firm, Tranzon Fox.
LANCASTER, Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- Might America's first president have quenched his thirst at the Lancaster Tavern and Inn, which was built circa 1790 in the Virginia town where George Washington's mother, Mary Ball Washington, resided? While we will probably never know for sure, he did visit the area five times during his presidency. Since the Tavern was the only public house at the time, it's quite likely Mr. Washington bellied up to the bar and dined here. And now, it can be yours as it hits the market via online auction, with bids closing the morning of February 22, 2023, says the auction firm, Tranzon Fox.
