This yellow pine log house “Belleview” was built by local farmer Reuben P. Bell for his family at Kimball Springs near Luray. The structure was carefully moved piece by piece to its current site, coincidentally owned by the same family in the 19th century. The log walls were covered with siding and plaster several years after the house was built. Reuben Bell served in the Virginia House of Delegates from 1859 to 1861.
