Description
English:

A gravel road curves beside rolling fields of grass, wooden fencing, and a row of trees.

The Richmond-Lynchburg Stage Road was established through the Appomattox Court House Landscape in 1809. This was the first recorded access route to this area, and settlement in the village followed based on travelers' needs. As population grew, roads began to spread out from this main circulation artery. Circulation has changed since that time, but traces of the road remain.
