2013 Map of Waterford

About this map

Waterford serves as the focal point of this Northern Virginia landscape, surrounded by a network of crossroads and small settlements like Loyalty, Goresville, and Lucketts. The topography is defined by the winding course of Catoctin Creek and its branches, which drain toward the Potomac River. Significant historical and recreational markers are found throughout the area, notably the Balls Bluff Battlefield and the sprawling estate of Morven Park. The map documents the enduring presence of river crossings at Whites Ferry and Potomac Crossing, alongside prominent terrain features such as Bald Mountain and the low-lying Back Swamp. These details highlight a region where historical preservation and early transportation routes, including the Catoctin Creek Bridge, continue to shape the modern landscape near the Maryland border.
