Notes
  • Significance: Situated on a hill overlooking the horseshoe bend of the James River, Mount Wall was built circa 1775 by John Scott, proprietor of Scott's Landing (later Scottsville). Interior alterations were apparently made early in the nineteenth century by Peter Field Jefferson, great nephew of Thomas Jefferson. The flanking wings and guest house are modern. The fine drawing room woodwork and the unusual pent roof on the northwest corner of the original house are of particular note.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-223, FN-224
  • Survey number: HABS VA-986
  • Building/structure dates: ca. 1775 Initial Construction
  • Building/structure dates: 18t1 Subsequent Work
