Middle Peninsula-Historic West Point
Friday, April 27, 2018
10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Forty miles east of Richmond, West Point, founded by Captain John West in 1658, is nestled where the Pamunkey and Mattaponi Rivers form the York River. By the late 1800s the town had become a fashionable vacation spot with a large hotel overlooking the rivers. Steam boats from Baltimore brought goods and tourists to its ports while railroads connected it to Richmond. Walking the cherry and pear tree lined streets though the residential and downtown areas with the stately Victorian architecture brings back images of those long ago days while a contemporary environmentally “green” house reminds us of our life today.
