Joseph Glenn. Sale of Land.
Situated across from Old Apple Orchard I and II in Bethania, this small parcel contains the foundation remnants of Cedar Grove School, an African-American one room school house that served Bethania and the surrounding area. In 2005, PLC acquired this historic property from its current owner and later transferred it to the State to be managed by the NC Department of Cultural Resources. The successful protection of this property marks the seventh project protecting historic lands in Bethania.
Project funding provided by the Conservation Fund, NC Natural Heritage Trust Fund, Town of Bethania, AME Zion Church, and Bethania Historic Association.
