| The Monsour Sheep Farm is rich in local history. The stone building to the right is the first school building to be constructed in Bedford County. Guests of the Country Estate have this view from the School House Bedroom. One-half acre surrounding this historical building has been deeded to the Pioneer Historical Society. The schoolhouse will soon be undergoing a preservation project, sponsored by the Bedford Rotary Club. |

History enthusiasts will also enjoy exploring the Hill Top Cemetery located on the farm. This pre-Revolutionary cemetery is the final resting place for members of three families; the Kauffmans, Sills, and Reighards. Farm owner, Kathy Monsour, has compiled some research on the families and their kin buried in the Hill Top Cemetery. She would be happy to share her information with any interested guests of Monsour Vacation Homes. |
