The Pratt House was one of three 19th century mansions in Rosedale, Va.
(One of the areas in our Richlands Branch)
The home was struck by lightening May 19th and because firefighters were already working two other house fires, it burned to the ground. Now when we drive by all we see are the brick walls and blackened chimneys of the ten fireplaces. It's so sad to loose such a landmark.
No one was home at the time, and the owners do plan to rebuild.
How sad! :(
