Manor is a ghost town in Washington Township, Montgomery County, Ohio, United States.[1] Originally, Manor was founded as a railway stop between Centerville and on the Cincinnati, Lebanon, and Northern Railway.[2] It was located on Social Row Road just one mile east of Dayton-Lebanon Pike (State Route 48).[3]
Rosedale[]
Between 1898 and 1918, the town was mapped as Rosedale.[4] In 1900, Rosedale was recorded as a small town. [5]
Big Bend Park (Manor Station)[]
Centerville-Washington Park District maintains the grounds where the station once stood. An old railroad track bed is preserved in the park, which is also a walking trail. [6] The southbound rail splits at this station and combines again near Lytle station. [7]
