Culture, General, History, Historic House, Historical Society, Specialized

Rippon Lodge was built circa 1747 by Richard Blackburn and is one of the oldest houses still standing in Prince William County. This modest house was built on a hilltop overlooking the mouth of Neabsco Creek and the Potomac River and was surrounded by several other structures during the 18th century. In the early 20th century the home under went extensive renovations by its then owner Judge Wade Ellis and his wife Dessie. Stewardship of the home then passed to its last private owner Admiral Richard Blackburn Black in 1953. Prince William County purchased the property in 2000 and began extensive restoration efforts.

Rosewell Foundation, Inc.
Gloucester, Virginia

Historic House

One of colonial America's grandest mansions, Rosewell was built between 1725-1738 and gutted by fire in 1916. Four massive chimneys, one wall, and a vaulted cellar are now silent witnesses to history. Stabilized, but not rebuilt, Rosewell allows visitors to inspect 18th-century brickwork from a perspective that no intact building can offer.
The Rosewell mansion was the centerpiece of a 3000-acre plantation where slaves cultivated tobacco and grain. Beneath its soil, countless artifacts now wait for archaeologists to interpret them. While preservation and study are ongoing, there are no plans to rebuild the mansion within its remaining walls.
