Summary

This documentation was completed for a class at the University of Virginia & subsequently donated to the HABS collection.
Significance: Page's Country Store is an L-shaped, wood frame structure originally used as a country store. The entire structure is sheathed in weatherboards; the roof is made of metal standing seam. The oldest portion stands on a brick pier foundation. The space between the piers is filled with stone. Later additions have concrete foundations. The original section was constructed late in the nineteenth century, with additions in the 1910s and 1985. The 1985 portion is now used as a post office.
