Abandoned School Milky Way 1484 C (Explored)
Milky Way and the abandoned schoolhouse in the town of Govan in Lincoln County, Washington.
Govan schoolhouse was built in 1905 when the town was a rail center and had a population of several hundred. The school was abandoned in 1940, and today, Govan has a population of three people.
This is probably the best known abandoned school in Washington State. The school is a popular destination for photographers and fans of abandoned places.
Govan Schoolhouse is also well known to ghost hunters, perhaps because there were a couple of grisly, unsolved murders in the town in the early 1900s. Several 'ghost hunters' were exploring the school the night I shot this photo. From their conversations, it sounded like Govan had been featured in some ghost hunting TV show, and supposedly a murdered body was discovered in or near the school a long time ago.
The ghost hunters didn’t stay long, and after they left, I got this shot.
