Located at the intersection of the Blue Ridge Parkway and River Ridge
Road in Floyd County. When you leave Floyd going north (towards Roanoke) on Rt. 221, travel
11 miles and turn right on Rt. 664 (River Ridge Road). I estimate it will be about three miles to the church which will be
on the right side of the road. – Mary Williams |

The Ridgemont Hospital Currently Floyd Co., Historical Society Museum The Historical Society museum and offices
are housed in a Victorian vernacular style building in downtown Floyd,
Virginia, that Dr. Martin Luther Dalton had built in 1913. Dalton is believed to have hired Lather
Hylton, a well-known local builder, to construct his new office and hospital,
which he named “The Ridgemont.” On the first floor was the surgery,
pharmacy, examining room with an x-ray machine, and waiting room. Three rooms
on the second floor housed over-night patients. Dalton ran the hospital from
its opening on March 26, 1914 until 1923. Subsequently, Dr. Silas T. Yeatts operated the hospital. In 1950 the building became
the home of Marie Williams, a long-time dedicated teacher in Floyd County
schools and the first President of the Floyd County Historical Society. After
her death, the Floyd County Historical Preservation Trust acquired the
building and began rehabilitation work so it could become an historical
museum. The museum opened on May 29,
2010 and continues to welcome visitors each May thru December of the year. (src: History of the Ridgemont - Floyd County Historical Society
