Belle Grove Plantation Smokehouse Location

Middletown, Virginia

The restored Belle Grove Plantation is located near Middletown , Virginia. The plantation was once a 7,500 acre grain plantation and is now a Historic Site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Construction started as early as 1788 and in 1864, the surrounding fields were at the epicenter of the Civil War battle called the Battle of Cedar Creek. The distance barn was constructed in 1918 and today the plantation is open for tours.

During the American Civil War the Shenandoah Valley witnessed numerous battles. The Shenandoah Valley is also one of the most beautiful locations in Virginia with rolling lands and mountains.

The interplay of light and shadows coupled with the choice of monochromatic hues, showcases the building's strong architectural features while the backdrop of billowing clouds adds an ethereal touch to the scene.....V

fire and smoke within and without then, preserving meat while men killed each other...ideal conditions for your visit, with sky tones to match the structures..

Fine shot of the smokehouse, and an interesting history of the plantation. Years ago we used to stay at a friend's house in the Shenandoah, and indeed it's a beautiful area. V.
