The Buckingham Training School is a historic school property at 245 Camden Street in Dillwyn, Virginia. Now Ellis Acres Memorial Park, the property's centerpiece is a community center that was built in 1932 as the automotive shop building of the local Rosenwald School.[2] The building was one of 11 such facilities built with Rosenwald funds in Virginia, and one of about 160 nationwide. It is a modest single-story wood-frame structure with a concrete block foundation and weatherboard siding. Its interior has retained many original features despite standing vacant and the undergoing rehabilitation for use as a community center.[3]
The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
