"Willow Wall", also known as McNeill Family House, is a historic home located near Old Fields, Hardy County, West Virginia. It was built in 1811-1812, and is a two story, "U"-shaped brick dwelling in the Georgian-Tidewater style. It has double Georgian porch, outlined by Ionic order columns. The two wings have double Palladian windows on the front gable ends. The interior features the French hand-printed wallpaper "The Passing of the Chase." The property was first settled in between 1760 and 1770 by Daniel McNeill. During the American Civil War the McNeill properties were centers of activity for McNeill's Rangers and the Willow Wall residence was used as a hospital for wounded men.
