Settled in 1753, but abandoned and permanently resettled in 1774, Beverly is one of the oldest and best preserved towns in West Virginia. The historic district is a collection of 45 historic structures primarily built in six different architectural styles: Cabin, I-house, Tri-Gable-L, Princess/ Queen Anne Style, Bungalow Style and Commercial/Public. Many buildings date from the late 1700s when Beverly was incorporated as the county seat of Randolph County. Its location at the intersection of the Staunton-Parkersburg Turnpike and the Beverly-Fairmont Pike made it the commercial center of Randolph County until Elkins became the county seat in 1890. The Rich Mountain Battlefield Foundation Visitors Center, the Randolph County Museum and the Beverly Heritage Center all tell the story of the region.

Directions:
