Archaeological Investigations, Windsor Plantation (Site 44CE0110), Fort A.P. Hill (AP2012.002)

Part of: Fort A.P. Hill, Caroline County, Virginia

As part of a Cooperative Agreement with the United States Army Environmental Command, The Louis Berger Group, Inc. was tasked to complete the archaeological excavations at Site 44CE0110. The site is the probable core of Woodford Plantation (Windsor Plantation) with occupation from the 1700s to the mid-1900s. The location of a non-extant house is defined by a cellar depression. The brickwork suggests a construction date of the 1800s. Brick fragments and artifacts indicative of the occupation in the 1700s were identified, but the location of the earlier house could not be determined. Although the core area of the site is recommended as eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places under Criteria A, B, and D, the portion of the site within the APE for the current investigation does not appear to contribute to the site’s eligibility.
