1894 Map of Warrenton

USGS Topo · Published 1897

About this map

Warrenton stands as the central hub of this late 19th-century landscape, where several roads and the Richmond and Danville R. R. (Va. Midland Div.) converge. The topography is dominated by the northeast-trending ridges of the Bull Run Mountains and the Watery Mountains, creating a natural barrier that is pierced at the notable Thorofare Gap. The map illustrates a rural Piedmont economy tied closely to its water sources, including the Rappahannock River forming the southwestern boundary and Goose Creek to the north.
