About this map

Rappahannock River frontage defines the southern edge of this Westmoreland County landscape, where maritime history meets rural Virginia crossroads. The transition from tidal water to upland farm country is marked by old riverside access points like Greenlaw Wharf and Wilmont Wharf, and navigation landmarks such as Devils Elbow and Horse Head Point. Inland, the settlement pattern is characterized by numerous small forks and corners, including Rollins Fork, Weedons Fork, and Dickinsons Corner, which trace the evolution of local road networks over generations.

Evidence of the region's diverse land use is visible at the Colonial Beach Dragway and the Cameron Hills Golf Links. To the east, the map details drainage patterns through Mattox Cr and Troy Cr, feeding into the larger river system near Leesville. This terrain, shaped by ancient mine runs like Bristol Mine Run, remains a mix of wooded swamps such as Boom Swamp and established agricultural plots around Nash Town and Smith Hill.
