Description

Photograph of the Mark Bird House, commonly called the "Birds Nest Inn," in Woodstock Virginia.

Two arrows in the foreground point to survey posts marking the boundary of the lot utilized for the US Post Office.

It was originally owned by Mark Bird, a County Judge during the 19th century. After his death it was used alternatively as a residence, a school, and an apartment building.

The house was located on Muhlenberg Street. In 1927, it was moved to an adjacent lot along Commerce Street to accommodate the new Woodstock Post Office.
