Friends of Historic Centreville

The Friends of Historic Centreville usually meets on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at the Old Stone Church in the Centreville Historic District. Please contact us if you would like to attend a meeting. The Church of the Ascension at the Old Stone Church generously provides our meeting space. They have a great website that includes historical notes and
directions to the church.

Below is some more information about FHC & Centreville history and a few "then" and "now" photos of historic sites. Take some time and enjoy viewing the other pages on this site ...
