The old brick
Romney water plant and its newer metal addition were torn
down to make way for the new bridge across the South
Branch just below Romney.
 
Much of the hillside was removed to make way for
the approach to the new bridge over the
South
Branch below Romney. This hill had Civil War trenches guarding the old
bridge approach
to Romney. Fort Pearsall may have
been located somewhere on this hill overlooking the river.
The dirt was used to raise the approaches to the
bridge.
The old Opera House became the
Ben Franklin store (shown being torn down above) and now is the
playground for the blue day care center (old Dollar Store). The
Brass Rail sports bar (formerly the Pioneer Restaurant) next to it
moved to the back of the old Alpine Theater and the building is
destroyed. |
