The Property is lot "E";  430 feet of frontage on the Rappahannock River.

5.8 acres; double click to view or print:

The combined estate lots have more river frontage than farms of 50 or even 100 acres.  The 5.8 acres has twice as much, if not more more river frontage than many  subdivision lots on the river.

Below, a river chart of the area showing the property relative to the Town of Port Royal and the depth of the water.

The water near the shore is about a foot to two feet at low tide, generally, the channel depth varies from 15 to 60 feet in depth.  Tide is about two feet vertical.

Above, the tax map with an overlay of the 100 year floodplain.  Yes, it has flood plain because the land gently slopes to the water.  There are lots with very little flood plain because they are very steep and owners spend a lot of money building structures to get down to the water. It is a trade-off between no flood plain and steep banks or some flood plain and immediate access to the water.

·         Port Royal's 17th century pirate is immortalized in the name Peumansend Creek. A French pirate, a Monsieur Peuman, was the scourge of the settlers. Eventually they chased him up the creek and killed him. Thus the name "Peuman's End", a name which appeared on deeds as early as 1670.
