Tuckwiller Tavern, also known as Valley View Stock Farm, Inc. and Wilson Farm, is a historic tavern located at Lewisburg, Greenbrier County, West Virginia. It was built between 1826 and 1828, and is a large, two-story (plus basement) rectangular brick building with a one-story ell in an early rusticated Greek Revival style. It sits on a fieldstone foundation and features a portico supported by four massive, white wooden columns. Also on the property is a brick smokehouse. During the American Civil War, it was used as a headquarters and barracks in 1864 by Union General David Hunter.[1]
It is believed to have been built by "local brickmasons, contractors, and 'architects'" John W. Dunn and David K. Spotts.[1]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
