2013 Map of Woodford

About this map

The Mattaponi River and its numerous tributaries, including White Run, Tanyard Run, and Mays Run, define the low-lying hydrology of this Caroline County landscape. Small rural settlements are scattered throughout the region, connected by a network of historic routes like the Fredericksburg Tpke and Ladysmith Rd. The presence of the Woodford Airpark near Welchs indicates the modern infrastructure integrated into this traditionally agricultural and wetlands area. Larger water features such as Hobby Swamp and Reedy Swamp dominate the southern sections of the quadrangle, illustrating the complex drainage patterns that feed into the river systems. Local crossroads like Washington Corner, Paige, and Wrights Corner serve as the primary navigational markers in an area characterized by dispersed residences and local ponds like Old Grays Pond and Coleman Pond.
