2022 Map of Belmont

About this map

The agricultural and wooded lands of the Orange Co Spotsylvania Co border define this northern Virginia landscape. Small settlements like Bells Crossroad, Stubbs, and Paytes remain centers of local activity, often anchored by deep-rooted religious institutions such as Craigs Church Baptist Church and Olivet United Methodist Church. The topography is shaped by the southward flow of Robertson Run and Plentiful Creek toward the northern fingers of Lake Anna, where Perkinson Point extends into the water. For the local historian, the map reveals an extensive network of family cemeteries—including the Hall, Sullivan, and Preston Brooks sites—suggesting generations of land ownership and kinship ties across the rural countryside near Granite Springs.
