The spring house at Brushy Hill preserve.The city of Lexington owns over 500 acres in Rockbridge County, about three miles from town, kept as a nature preserve, with former logging roads now forming a network of trails. This old stone spring house (with its shiny new roof) sits down by Union Run, next to the small parking area. It's a little bit of man-made that is not out of place in its natural surroundings, I think.

It fits in very nicely. We are on a spring and I wonder where the original spring house was. There are a set of old steps that lead down to it but you'd think there'd be an actual building somewhere, or possibly some remains of one.
I was just at this very spot a while back, tried to snap a shot and it looks nothing like this one. Nice work! Have you got another photo blog?
I graduated from WnL in 2006 and my friend just showed me your blog the other day, it makes me so nostalgic! We have a mountain house up in the Catskills and there is a creepy old spring house a few hundred yards into our backyard, I wish I had known about this one, though!
