What scale are you looking for?

Keithandor15 Mar 2010 5:17 a.m. PST

15mm , but any scale will do I can scale them up or down to suit.

You might consider the cut-and-assemble village sets by Dover Pubs in the US.

The New England Village and Western Town are good scenery in HO scale.
The New England set is on sale now for $7.00, so it's a deal.

There are dozens on the web that can be used for ACW, but they're scattered around. There's a few on this site to get you started, ranging from simple cabins to some fairly elaborate town buildings:

All of my ACW games use paper buildings (sometimes mixed in with resin). A few examples:

Jeff,
Very nice looking table.
Do you reduce the print outs of these buildings by half before assembling.

Thanks, Mike.

I reduce them to the scale of the miniatures, which depends on the size of the source file. Reduce the file size so that the doors are a little taller than the miniatures, and you're good to go.
