A closer address is 2681 OH-3, Washington Court House, Ohio.
This puts it right on the property.
A 1956 aerial shows the drive-in intact, but a 1985 aerial shows it demolished.
Today, only the entrance and exit roads remain along with some of the outline of the drive-in. Also, the base of the marquee is still intact.
