The Eggleston School is former school and current private residential structure located at the 10539 Nolan Road in rural Nester Township in southeastern Roscommon County, Michigan. It was designated as a Michigan Historic Site on February 29, 1996, and soon after added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 4, 1996.[1][2] The school is particularly notable for the finely crafted fieldstone exterior, constructed of blocks with various shapes, sizes, and hues.[3] It is the only property in Roscommon County listed on the National Register and one of only four county properties designated as a Michigan Historic Site — along with Gerrish Township Information Site, Pioneer House, and Turney House.[4]
