Across the street from Craig County Courthouse in New Castle, Virginia is the 3-story Old Brick Hotel (the NRHP nomination form names it the Central Hotel) dating from circa 1840. It remains pretty much how it appeared in 1854-1855 on both interior and exterior. Apparently it began as a tavern and the building predates the formation of Craig County. The roof is standing-seam-metal hipped roof. There is a wide overhang of the cornice. The brick structure is ell-shaped with various bonds--the first two stories of the front are Flemish bond with the upper story being 7-course American bond. The walls of the ell are irregular American bond. Doors and windows have plain surrounds with corner blocks, wood portions at the corners with a design (barely visible in image 5). The windows also vary in the sash with some being 6/6 and others 2/2. Some of the doors are paneled and some have glass panes; they have rectangular transoms with 4 lights. The two-tiered porch is wraparound. The upper porch roof is supported by wooden piers with molding at the bottom; this porch is supported from below with brick piers. The balustrade on the upper porch generally consists of vertical rails with a central section of horizontal rails. The end balustrade differs in design with an open oval pattern created by the positioning of the rails. Chimneys are interior, A portion of the Craig County Courthouse is visible in the background in some photos. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places October 25, 1973 #73002005 as part of the New Castle Historic District. The boundary increase on June 10, 1993 of the district provides a more fleshed-out description of the building.

New Castle United Methodist Church is a prominent structure (with its steep-pitched bright red roof) in the small town of New Castle, Craig County, Virginia. Built on land deeded to the church for $1, the frame church on stone foundation is one-story high. The church, built about 1893, is in Greek Revival style. A quatrefoil stained-glass window is in the front gable; on the side are pointed-arch stained-glass windows. The original belfry on the red, standing-seam-metal roof is square with open widows; it has an unusual shaped roof supported by large brackets. The belfry culminates in a sharp point.
