2013 Map of Stratford Hall

About this map

Stratford Hall anchors the Virginia shoreline of the Potomac River, overlooking a landscape defined by significant historic estates and water-dependent commerce. This 2013 survey details the transitional geography between the cliffs of the Northern Neck and the low-lying Maryland shore. On the Virginia side, features like Stratford Mill and the Stratford Millpond sit near the rugged Stratford Cliffs and Horsehead Cliffs. Across the water in Maryland, the map identifies small water-oriented communities such as Coltons Point, Palmers, and River Springs. The maritime character of the era is underscored by the Cobb Point Bar Lighthouse and the presence of numerous inlets like Dukeharts Creek and Saint Patrick Cr. Local history is reflected in many family-named landmarks, from Bettys Neck and Goodrich Farm to the small settlement at Bryant Town.
