2022 Map of Stratford Hall

About this map

The Potomac River dominates this landscape, where the northern neck of Virginia meets the waters of Maryland. Along the southern shore, the iconic Stratford Cliffs and Nomini Cliffs rise above the river, providing a dramatic backdrop for the historical grounds of Stratford Hall. This area is characterized by a network of tidal creeks and marshes, such as Currioman Bay and Dukeharts Creek, which have long shaped local commerce and settlement patterns. The land is dissected by numerous small runs, including Little Meadow Run and Big Meadow Run, which feed into larger bodies like the Stratford Millpond. Inland, small crossroads and settlements such as Lerty, Chisford, and Chiltons are connected by a web of rural routes like Stratford Hall Rd and Chilton Rd. This 2022 survey preserves the locations of local landmarks including the Shiloh Baptist Church Cem and the riverfront community of Coltons Point across the water in Maryland.
