A Heritage of Hospitality
When the National Road came through here in 1815, this settlement was a half mile away along the old Braddock Road. This "New Grantsville" developed just west of the Casselman Bridge, completed a few years earlier. About a dozen buildings were moved from "Old Grantsville" to take advantage of the new road and the prosperity it would bring.HM Number | HM2M5 |
