Title: Quarterpath Road Location: Rte. 60 (Warwick Blvd.) S.E. of Williamsburg Description: "James Bray owned land nearby in Middle Plantation by the 1650's and Quarterpath Road probably began as a horse path to one of Bray's quarters or farm units. Over the years the road was improved; it extend to Col. Lewis Burwell's landing on the James River by the early eighteenth century. As Williamsburg grew, Quarterpath Road became one of the principal routes by which travelers and trade goods were brought into the colonial capital."   BACK
