An historic Victorian fence on
the west side of the North House
Museum in Lewisburg was re-
cently installed by the Green-
brier Gardeners Garden Club.
The fence originally surrounded
the grounds of the Greenbrier
County Courthouse on Court
Street.
The installation was part el
an ongoing project of the club to
beautify the grounds of the
building, which was constructed
in 1820 and now draws tourists
each year from May to October.
According to Emily Shlrey, chair-
nmn of the garden club project,
the Greenbrler Historical Society
purchased the fence from the
Lewisburg Foundation last fall
for $500. The garden club hired
local contractor Orville Sams to
scrape and re-paint the fence at
a price of $2,500, funded by the
club. Mr Sams installed it in
early June.
Additional portions of the
fence are still located behind the
courthouse, and the club is
working to acquire them for later
restoration and installation. Mr
Sams said a gate is needed for
the fence and welcomed informa-
tion about locating one in keep-
ing with the Victorian style,
along with ad'ditional fencing.
The early his,ely of the fence
is sketchy, but according to local
historian William D. Tuckwiller,
it dates from the late 1800's
when it was purchased for the
grounds of the courthouse.
David Tuckwiller said the por-
tion around the front part of the
building was removed in late
1930's or early 1940's and
stored near "The Barracks," a
building still standing at the
northeast corner of Randolph
and Jefferson streets. Tom
