Appomattox Court House National Historical Park anchors the southern portion of this landscape, encompassing the headwaters of the Appomattox River and preserving the grounds of the historic surrender site. The surrounding terrain is defined by the transition between the rolling hills of the Virginia Piedmont and the rising elevations of Bald Mtn and Piney Mtn. Small settlements like Oakville and Vera serve as rural nodes connected by a network of local roads such as Oakville Rd and Wildway Rd. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the mapped locations of the Babcock Cem and the Patterson - Hix Burial Ground, which sit near the river. The presence of Nashs Airport and numerous named watercourses like Bent Cr and Blackfoot Cr illustrate the area's mix of traditional agrarian land use and modern utility.
