Hampshire County Courthouse (West Virginia)

The Hampshire County Courthouse is a Neoclassical edifice in the center of downtown Romney, county seat of Hampshire County, West Virginia. The present building was constructed in 1922 to replace the previous 1833 Neoclassical courthouse that had been destroyed by fire in 1921. The original bell from the 1833 courthouse hangs in the domed bell tower. Civil War history During the Civil War, John Baker White was the Clerk of Court for the courthouse. No court proceedings convened in Hampshire County between 1861 and 1864 and the county's courthouse was used as a stable by Union soldiers stationed in Romney during the war. Upon learning of this, White was again concerned for the safety of the county's records and proceeded to load land registration records ledger books onto wagons and had them transported to Winchester for safekeeping. White selected for transport only the bound volumes of records which included "deed books, wills, and settlements of estates" and kept the unbound paper records in the courthouse, thus separating them so that the entirety of the county's records could not be destroyed by Union forces. White likely chose to transport the bound volumes of records, as the loose paper records would have been more cumbersome to keep together. In 1863, when Winchester was no longer a safe location for the storage of Hampshire County's records and they again risked destruction by Union Army forces, White's son Captain Christian Streit White took responsibility for the records and transferred them to Front Royal. When Front Royal became endangered by advancing Union Army forces, Captain White had the records moved to Luray Caverns where they remained for several months. In the Fall of 1864, the county's record books were rescued by Captain White and his company as Union Army troops were in the process of destroying them. Captain White's company loaded about 150 record books into a wagon and they were taken to North Carolina where they remained safely for the duration of the war. Hampshire County's land records survived and were returned to the courthouse following the conclusion of the American Civil War, likely by a soldier returning to the area from North Carolina. Had White not separated the records and sent the bound volumes away for safekeeping, Hampshire County would have lost all its records during the course of the war, as those that remained in the courthouse were destroyed. Miscellany The original cast-iron fence that surrounded the 1833 courthouse was removed during reconstruction of the present courthouse and relocated to the Hiett Graveyard on North River between the communities of North River Mills and Pleasant Dale.

Hawley Field

Hawley Field is a baseball field in Morgantown, West Virginia, United States, that was named for Roy Hawley, former athletic director for Marshall University and West Virginia University. Along with Appalachian Power Park in Charleston, West Virginia, it served as one of two home venues of the West Virginia Mountaineers baseball team before the new Monongalia County Ballpark opened in April 2015. The stadium holds 1,500 spectators. Hawley Field hosted the 1985 Atlantic 10 Conference baseball tournament, which the Mountaineers won on their home field. Prior to the 2013 season, the facility's infield was resodded. West Virginia joined the Big 12 Conference following the 2012 season. Since Hawley Field does not meet Big 12 Conference standards, and the state legislature turned down a plan for a taxpayer funded replacement, the Mountaineers played three of their four 2013 home conference series at Appalachian Power Park in Charleston and one at Linda K. Epling Stadium in Beckley (160 and 185 miles from campus, respectively). Non-conference games continued to be played at Hawley Field. In 2013, plans were announced to build a new venue in the nearby town of Granville for the Mountaineers baseball team. The new park, ultimately known as Monongalia County Ballpark, was originally scheduled to open at the start of the 2015 season, but weather-related construction delays forced the Mountaineers to play their first several 2015 home games in Washington, Pennsylvania until the new park opened that April. In 2013, the Mountaineers ranked 50th among Division I baseball programs in attendance, averaging 1,328 per home game.

Herbert Hoover High School (West Virginia)

Herbert Hoover High School (HHHS) is a public high school in Elkview, West Virginia, United States. It is part of the Kanawha County Schools district. History Herbert Hoover High School first opened its doors in September 1963, following the consolidation of Clendenin High School and Elkview High School. The school began integrating 9th grade students during the 1992–1993 academic year.Historically, Herbert Hoover High School faced challenges with academic performance and was once considered among the lower-performing schools in West Virginia. In 2009, Mike Kelley was hired as the new principal, bringing a renewed focus on academic achievement and school culture. In recent years, the school has seen significant improvement, and as of 2022, it was ranked as the sixth-best overall high school in the state. During the 2016 West Virginia flood, the school building was damaged beyond repair on June 23, 2016 when the Elk River put 7 feet of water into the school. On July 21, 2016 the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) declared the building a total loss and the Kanawha County School Board began expedited plans for a new building, however several delays prevented the advancement of the project, and the new facility is expected to be opened in August 2023. For the 2016–17 school year, students shared space, via a split schedule, with Elkview Middle School. This involved each group attending school for four-and-one-half hours per day with reading and homework assignments. A temporary campus of modified mobile home-type units known as "modulars" was constructed adjacent to the middle school, and a normal schedule was resumed for the 2017–18 school year. FEMA provided the modulars and will fund approximately 75 to 80% of the cost for the new building. The old, damaged building was demolished in September 2018. Following the destruction of the original school building during the 2016 West Virginia flood, a new state-of-the-art campus was constructed. The new Herbert Hoover High School officially opened to students in August 2023. Athletics As of 2025, Herbert Hoover High School competes in Class AAA of the WVSSAC. Programs include: State championships Football Playoff appearances Herbert Hoover has made nineteen postseason appearances and reached the state championship game twice.

Hook's Tavern

Hook's Tavern or Hook Tavern was a late 18th-century tavern along the Northwestern Turnpike (U.S. Route 50) east of Capon Bridge in Hampshire County, West Virginia. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 29, 2011. It burned in an alleged arson on October 14, 2022. History Located near the eastern base of Bear Garden Mountain in the Mill Branch valley, Hook's Tavern was constructed along the Northwestern Turnpike between the 1790 and 1809 on property belonging to early Hampshire County settler Peter Mauzy. In 1840, the property was purchased by the Hook family who began operating the building as a tavern. Samuel Hook and John B. Sherrard obtained a hotel license on May 26, 1848, to operate the tavern as a fully functioning hotel. On June 1, 1862, Hook paid $10 for another hotel keeper's license. During the American Civil War, on February 3, 1862, J. A. Hunter of the Confederate States Army stated that because of severe weather, it was necessary for the Confederates to commandeer Samuel Hook's tavern and wood for the comfort of 80 sick men in his charge. Renovations in July 1956 revealed the name and date "William C. Black, May 7, 1845" on a plaster wall. Other names and remarks discovered included: "I can throw any mule driver on the road, John New" and "Too much snuff, McCauley" dated May 7, 1853. The Hook family and its descendants owned the tavern and its surrounding property from 1840 until 1987 when it was purchased by real estate developer Edward Noble of Atlanta, Georgia. In 2009, the tavern and its adjacent three acres were listed on the market for sale. The property became a junk store owned by Judson Eversole, of Eversole Enterprises. Hook's Tavern burned down in the early morning hours of October 14, 2022. Architecture Hook's Tavern was an ell-shaped structure with one leg parallel to U.S. Route 50 and the other parallel to Smokey Hollow Road (County Route 6). Hook's Tavern was a clapboard-covered, two-story structure with floors on three varying heights indicating that it was built in several phases. The tavern's front face along U.S. Route 50 was graced with a two-story porch. Its oldest constructed section contained a large fireplace with printles upon which a crane swung pots over the fire. Hook Tavern contained approximately 4,000 square feet (370 m2) consisting of ten rooms and two bathrooms.

Huntington station (Amtrak)

Huntington station is an Amtrak station in Huntington, West Virginia served by the Cardinal route. Located at 1050 8th Avenue, the station consists of a platform on the south side of the east-west tracks, a small parking lot, and a small building containing a waiting room and space for a ticket office, though Amtrak pulled the station agent in the 21st century. The station replaced a nearby historic Chesapeake and Ohio Railway building that is still in use as offices for its successor CSX Transportation. C&O station The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway reached its original western terminus in Huntington in 1871. Its first station building, a three-story mansard-roofed building, was completed the following year. In 1913, the building was replaced by a new three-story 31,000-square-foot Colonial Revival red brick building with an Ionic portico. Around 1924, a statue of Collis Potter Huntington was added that was sculpted by Gutzon Borglum. It ceased to be used for passenger service in April 1971, and was converted to administrative offices for C&O's successor CSX Transportation, serving as the headquarters of one of its ten divisions. It was renovated in 1995. In 2016, CSX disbanded that division and split it between five other divisions, dramatically curtailing the number of employees in the building. Amtrak station The Amtrak station replaced the Chesapeake and Ohio station on 7th Avenue, which is still used by CSX. The C&O station hosted daily trains headed northwest, west and east: Fast Flying Virginian (west to Cincinnati, and sections east to Washington, D.C., and Newport News), George Washington (sections west to Cincinnati and Louisville, and sections east to Washington, D.C., and Newport News) and the Sportsman (northwest to Detroit, and sections east to Washington, D.C., and Newport News). The one story Amtrak building was constructed to a standard design that Amtrak developed in the 1970s and used at locations throughout the country for the next two decades. Typical features included at Huntington are concrete block walls, floor to ceiling windows and a black, cantilevered roof.
