The Old Methodist District Parsonage is a 19th century Italianate residence in Romney, West Virginia, United States. It was constructed between 1868 and 1882 to serve as the district parsonage for the area's Methodist churches. After it fell out of use by the church, the eight-room residence was purchased and restored by the Long family and currently features 18th and 19th century furnishings and folk art.[2] The Old Parsonage was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1]
