Sugar Creek Covered Bridge

Sugar Creek Covered Bridge is a covered bridge which crosses Sugar Creek southeast of Chatham, Illinois. The Burr truss bridge is 110 feet (34 m) long and 30 feet (9 m) wide. The bridge was constructed by Thomas Black; sources disagree on the date of construction, placing it at either 1827 or 1880. The State of Illinois acquired the bridge in 1963 and extensively renovated it two years later. The bridge closed to traffic in 1984 and is now part of a local park with a picnic area. It is one of only five historic covered bridges in Illinois and is the oldest of the remaining bridges.

Shriver Farmstead

The Shriver Farmstead is a historic farm located on County Line Road northwest of Virden, Illinois. The farm consists of an historic mansion, two barns and a smokehouse; it also includes a creek on 6 acres (2 ha) of land. Owner John Ryan built the farm's original buildings from 1858 to 1860. The mansion has an Italianate design which features a front porch supported by square posts, paired brackets below the eaves, pilasters at the corners, and a projecting gable above the entrance. The house consists of 3 stories plus a large full basement. The interior boasts 12 foot ceilings and 9 foot doors. It also retains all of the original woodwork, including the floors. The barn, one of two built for the farm, has a New World Dutch-inspired plan which incorporates elements of several barn styles. Dr. William Shriver purchased the farm in 1890, and his family has owned the property until very recently. It was part of the Underground Railroad.

Lewis H. Thomas House

The Lewis H. Thomas House is a historic house located on North Virden Road near Virden, Illinois. The house was built in 1863-65 for agriculturalist Lewis H. Thomas and formed the centerpiece of his farm. Architect Elijah E. Myers, who also designed three state capitol buildings, planned the Victorian house. Thomas extensively used hedge fencing with bois d'arc on his farm and is considered a pioneer of the technique in Illinois. In addition, his farm was known for its livestock and became a local tourist attraction due to its unusual animals, which included peacocks, bears, and deer. After its roof was lost to a fire, the house was renovated in 1888.
