Currently (2020) the Indigo Salon and Spa. Approximate address 50555 Cherry Hill Road
Building to the left (east) is still standing at 50525 Cherry Hill Road.
Originally The Cherry Hill Inn, this building was built by Abner Hitchcock in 1866 on speculation that a railroad spur would come through Cherry Hill and travelers would need a place to stay. The railroad never came, and Hitchcock lost the building to creditors in 1870. Purchased by the Gunn family in 1884, it was turned into a thriving general store where neighbors gathered to share news and trade their farm goods for store-bought items. On Saturday nights the second floor rocked with live music and country line dancing. When this picture was taken in 1985, it was still a party store and as kids we'd stop here frequently to get cold bottles of Coke from their old vending machine.
Ray's Garage just to the east is also still standing but is no longer an operating business.
The building still stands and still houses the Indigo Salon and Spa. The area behind and around this, once acres of farm land, is now home to the Cherry Hill Village subdivision development; just to the left of these buildings now sits a small park and mini mall with a general store, Coldstone Creamery, and Subway.
Southeast corner of Cherry Hill and Ridge roads.
