Flip a coin to determine which is the closest hospital- Clermont Mercy Hospital to the west, or Adams County Regional Medical Center to the east. Both are about 40 minutes away along Rt. 32. Clermont Mercy is in the midst of an $18 million expansion to be completed by 2008 that will increase its Intensive care beds, and add additional services. Adams County Regional Medical Center is also expanding. It’s transitioning from a small county-owned hospital in nearby West Union, to a larger location near Seaman along Ohio 32. Plans call for the hospital to double in size adding a bigger emergency department, upgraded cancer services, and more operating rooms. The new location is expected to open in November 2006.

Tucked into the gently rolling hills of northwestern Adams County, the village of Winchester was known for its railroad stations, both above and “underground”. Within its not quite three mile town radius, Winchester became a major railroad shipping point between Cincinnati and Portsmouth after the Civil War.

Today it’s a National Historic Registered site. About 1000 residents share the village spirit and its simple charms.
