History and architectural features[edit]

Built in 1894, this historic structure is a two-and-one-half-story, rectangular building that measures fifty feet wide and eighty-four feet deep. It has red brick exterior walls and sits on a cut stone foundation. The front facade features an entrance arch reflecting Richardsonian Romanesque-style design influences. It also has pointed gable ends, a bracketed cornice, and two tower at either end of the front facade.^[2]

The building originally served as a courthouse for the western portion of Bradford County. It also originally housed a bank and insurance company. Court sessions ended in 1923. In 1916, it was purchased by E. Everitt Van Dyne, who deeded it to the school district and refurbished it as a civic center for the community. Over time, it has also housed the post office and library.^[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.^[1]
