About Brookneal, VA

Founded on the banks of the historic Staunton River, Brookneal’s origin began when Patrick Henry, the Voice of the American Revolution, selected this strategic location for a ferry crossing linking Campbell, Halifax, and Charlotte Counties. The rolling hills and rural landscape form a bucolic setting that inspired our most vocal Founding Father to retire and call this area his home.
