not sure of the name of the place, but is it the abandoned house along Rte 30 at the bottom of Rte 352?

"Many people visit daily...." Did this stand where Valley Creek business park does now?

at 30 and 352- that house is an old tavern, late 1700's, early 1800's. So sad it continues to sit vacant. It could be so nice. Was inside once and it still has most of its original interior.
