Glen Ferris Inn, Neoclassical hotel in Glen Ferris, United States.
The Glen Ferris Inn features a T-shaped brick structure with a three-story painted section and a two-story red brick wing measuring 140 feet long.
Established in 1839 as a stagecoach stop on the James River and Kanawha Turnpike, the inn functioned as a Union Army quartermaster depot during the Civil War.
The property belonged to Aaron Stockton, whose grandfather Richard signed the Declaration of Independence, representing a connection to American founding history.
The establishment contains 15 rooms, two suites, and two dining areas: the Old Stockton Dining Room and the Riverside Dining Room with views of Kanawha Falls.
The inn maintains its original Federal-style vernacular structure from 1815, constructed by two Irish builders along the banks of the Kanawha River.
