The Greersburg Academy was an educational institution that was established in 1802 in Darlington, Pennsylvania, United States by the Reverend Thomas Hughes.[3]

History and architectural features

The academy was created as a "prep" school for college.[4] Classes included languages, philosophy, and astronomy. Notable alumni of the school included abolitionist John Brown,[5] Walter Forward,[6] John White Geary,[5] Daniel Leasure,[7] William Holmes McGuffey.[6]

The stone structure was built sometime around 1806, making it one of the oldest buildings still standing in Beaver County.[3]

Though it was originally built as a school, the structure functioned as a railway station for a time, serving several railroads between 1883 and 1972.[3]

The structure is one of the oldest structures to have ever been used as a station.[3]

The Little Beaver Historical Society currently maintains the structure.
