2016 Map of Claremont

About this map

Claremont Manor and the town of Claremont sit atop the bluffs overlooking the wide expanse of the James River, where the geography is defined by a series of prominent river points such as Sloop Point and Tettington Ferry Point. The inland landscape transitions from the residential streets of Claremont, including Virginia Ave and Mansion Ave, into a network of dense wetlands and water bodies. Significant hydrologic features like Sunken Meadow Lake, Cypress Swamp, and Spring Grove Swamp dominate the southern and central portions of the quadrangle. Smaller settlements and historic sites like Spring Grove, Eastover, and Saint Anne's Cem are connected by rural routes such as Swanns Point Rd and Beaverdam Rd, illustrating the intersection of historic riverfront estates and the sprawling natural drainage systems of Tidewater Virginia.
