Here are two
residential houses that used to be stores in the old Ridge Valley.
One of the reasons people were attracted to Ridge Valley was
that they didn't have to travel long distances, wait for a peddler,
or make their own things. |
This is one of
many beautiful stone bridges in Ridge Valley. Because it is a
valley, many streams flow through it from the higher grounds
above, resulting in beautiful bridges and rich wildlife. |

The old
white church in Ridge Valley was big and attractive. Many people
often met to worship there. This church is also a historical
landmark. |
The old
brown church of Ridge Valley is located across the street from
the old white church in Ridge Valley. Because they look similar
and are located so close together, Ridge Valley was given the
nickname - "town of the twin churches." Many consider
this area a great place to raise children. |
