Built in 1890 on Sidney's northern side, the Whitby Mansion is a historic residence originally commissioned by W.H.C. Goode, an industrialist who controlled the nation's leading steel scraper manufacturing company. Designed by an unknown architect, the mansion combines Tudor Revival, Jacobethan, and Châteauesque architectural elements, distinguished by its massive stone walls crowned with a slate roof. The house exemplifies the opulent domestic architecture of wealthy Americans in the late nineteenth century and was recognized as historically significant when listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. After serving as the home of Goode—a descendant of Virginia's First Families—the mansion was converted by The Way International into an archive and museum by the mid-1970s. It is now operated as a bed and breakfast by GreatStone Castle Resorts.
