This former station, aka the "Castle Service Station", was built for E.W. Norris in 1926. Norris was inspired by a castle that he saw in Germany while serving in World War I. The station is built from post rock limestone. The detached garage was built in 1929. The station is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In the 1970s, this building housed a Kerr-McGee station. Since 2012, the building has housed the Glen Elder Castle Lodge, a bed and breakfast. [map]
