The original building as it appeared
around 1919.

Belhaven School
opened in 1908 with four classrooms. Sometime during the 1920s
four rooms were added at the back. Other additions were made
in 1959, 1976 and 1998. The old front exterior was incorporated
into each new construction preserving the look of the original
building.
We have no idea
why the building is labeled "Linwood High School" in
the front gable but the 1907 blueprints on display at the museum
called for that designation to be imprinted there.
