The FOWB tour was awesome.
My wife and I really enjoyed visiting Ellwood Manor. The tour was free. As soon as we opened the door, we were greeted by a friendly guide. He gave the two of us a tour. It was great just the three of us. We were able to talk to the guide and ask questions. The guide was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed the history of the manor and the stories he told, including the surrounding battles. Photography is allowed, so we were able to get great pictures. The manor was nice considering I was there mainly to see where Stonewall Jackson's arm was buried. After the tour, my wife and I started walking around the grounds. We went through the hedges and walked to the marker for Jackson's arm.
Google Maps got us to the parking area of Ellwood Manor.
Very nice and informative volunteers. With nice historical items to see.
Very knowledgeable volunteers here. This is a beautiful and quiet historic place to visit as a part of the road tour of the civil war battlefields.
Interesting tour by a volunteer of this 200+ year old house and its role in history. Worth a stop.
