A tour is a must. David Davis was appointed to the Supreme Court by Abraham Lincoln in 1862. These grounds, known as Clover Lawn, once covered 1,000 acres. Here we have a mansion built in 1888 that has been converted into a bed and breakfast. In front is a Ferris Wheel.
Next door is a huge antique mall and tea room.
This complex is a wonderful example of what's old and new on Historic Route 66. This mansion is the current home of the Macoupin County Historical Society and Museum. The style of the building is Italianate and Queen Anne. It looks like a big gingerbread home. Other buildings are also on the grounds.
