Abstract
Woodville Plantation was built around 1775 by General John Neville, patriarch of one of southwestern Pennsylvania's iconic families. The one-and-one-half-story frame house and its two-and-a-half acres are all that remain of a vibrant, 270-acre estate that served as a residence until the early 1970s. Woodville's historic importance is underscored by the fact that it is one of less than 200 National Historic Landmarks (NHL) in Pennsylvania, and one of only 2,500 NHL sites in the United States
