Logan Lot Archaeology Day — Open to the Public

October 14, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

 

 

Come on down to the backyard of the Logan House as we uncover history!

Thanks to a state grant, the Beverly Landmarks Commission and the Rich Mountain Battlefield Foundation have hired AllStar Ecology, a natural and cultural resources management firm to conduct a Phase I excavation on the Logan House property located at 831 Main Street in Beverly, Randolph County, West Virginia.

From 9am to 4pm on Monday, October 14, the public is invited to visit and learn more about the history of this property as it sits within many thousands of years of human occupation. From its proximity to the historical Seneca Trail, part of the deep network of trails engineered by Native communities in this area, to its use as a hospital after the Battle of Rich Mountain in summer 1861, this land has witnessed a lot! Join us as we uncover materials that might shed more light onto our rich and complex past.

Just down the street from the Beverly Heritage Center, we welcome visitors to park at the Center and walk the short distance along Walnut Street.
