About this map

The George Washington Birthplace National Monument dominates the shoreline of the Potomac River on this Westmoreland County coastal survey. The map details the transition from the tidewater resort character of Colonial Beach with its Filtration Plant and boat ramps to the rural agrarian interiors. Moving inland, the landscape is defined by extensive wetlands like Popes Creek Swamp and Digwood Swamp, punctuated by long-established crossroads such as Oak Grove, Wakefield Corner, and Potomac Mills.
