Old church, built in 1880, Niagara County.  CharlesB writes 'No denomination stated – signs were removed – asked occupants of nearby house and they told me “protestant”.  Not in bad shape.  Rather large for a rural setting, also a substantial wing – parsonage and/or church hall." and "Back boundary is a corn field, could not find a “handyman”, but notice the new hose by the doorway to the basement – someone is making an effort to keep the flowers watered, etc. though abandoned, not neglected yet."

Intersection of NY Routes 263 and 78, Erie County; small old gas station/repair shop. When opened it was on a sparsely traveled 2-lane highway, semi-rural setting and now the road is a 4-lane highway amid suburban sprawl. It is very busy and one of the main commuter entry and exit routes into the City of Buffalo. Note unique roof, in the photo below.

Village of Royalton, Niagara County, Gasport Road, to Royalton Ravine County Park trailhead.  CharlesB writes that "These homestead ruins are set way back in a truly wild area. Which makes it odd that Belva Lockwood, born in the house in 1830, became someone of notoriety. She was the first woman to practice law before the U.S. Supreme Court. She was also the first woman to run for President of the United States – first in 1884 and again in 1888.  It is 1.1 miles from the trail head. It couldn’t have been easy going to and coming from her home in 1830." CharlesB had to cross a 195 foot wooden suspension bridge (see photo below) at 0.8 miles to get to these ruins, and there are ravines in back and front of me and a swirling creek below.  Charles also writes "Belva was the nominee of the Equal Rights Party. You can learn more of her at the National Women’s Hall of Fame Web site www.greatwomen.org."
