BUCKLAND: A VIRGINIA TIME CAPSULE By David William Blake] Visited by Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Lafayette,Stuart and Lee, the town plan of Buckland is a rare exampleof the familiar axial English village pattern. The main I house and the town below, extending outward I from its gate,stand on land that was originally part of the Broad Run Tract owned by the family of Robert(King) Carter.2The Carterfamily operated a mill on the property in the early 1770's and conveyed the land to Samuel Love in 1774. During the late eighteenthcentmy, Love and his four sons Samuel,John, Charles and Augustine transfOrDledthe property into a vibrant mercantile center. The Loves' developmentof Buckland began with the constructionof the main housein 1774. The single pile stone residence is commonly attributed to architect William Buckland but has not been documented. Beside the existing mill, Love built an assortmentof secondary structuresfor production of farm goods at the base of the lane leading to the main house. In 1775,he petitioned the General Assembly to re-route the Old Carolina road so it would run directly to these outbuildingsand anotherbeyond, to ThoroughfareGap. Soon,the distillery, blacksmith,tannery, store and a secondmill were being frequentedby travelers. Outsidemerchants arrived, leased adjoining parcels and built storesof their own. By the end of the eighteenthcentury there were shopkeepers,a tailor, saddle maker, wheelwright,boot/shoe manufacturer, cooper, two taverns,an apothecary,church and a woolen factory -the essentialsof a smalltown.
