The
Woodlawn Historic and Archeological District
encompasses a historic plantation near the
Rappahannock River
in southern
King George County, Virginia
. The 899-acre (364 ha) property is located east of
US Route 301
near
Port Conway
. The estate boundaries are essentially the same as those when the plantation was first established in 1790. The main plantation house dates to that time although it has been extended and altered over the intervening centuries. Also of notable interest on this property are surviving antebellum slave quarters, and archaeological sites containing evidence of Native American occupation of the land.
[2]
The plantation was listed on the
National Register of Historic Places
in 1991.
