2010 Map of Yellow Tavern

About this map

Yellow Tavern serves as a central landmark in this 2010 depiction of Hanover County, where the infrastructure of the CSX railroad and modern highway interchanges meets deep-rooted Virginia settlements. The landscape is characterized by its transition from suburban residential clusters like Greenwood and Ashcake to more established sites such as Saint Josephs Villa. The map records several legacy locations that speak to the area's agricultural and industrial past, including the Chickahominy Mill Dam on the Chickahominy River and family-named landmarks like Berkeleys Store. Aviation plays a notable role in the local geography, with both the Hanover County Municipal Airport and the smaller Robertson Airport serving the region. Waterways such as Stony Run and Totopotomoy Creek drain the terrain, which is dotted with numerous small dams and named ponds like Forest Hills Lake, indicating the long-term management of the local watershed for both aesthetic and utility purposes.
