Between the Hills

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Between the Hills is a region of the Loudoun Valley in Loudoun County, Virginia. It is the area of the Loudoun Valley west of Short Hill Mountain and east of the Blue Ridge. Virginia Secondary Route 671, Harpers Ferry Road, runs north-south through the region from its southern terminus at West Virginia State Route 9, Charles Town Pike, west of Hillsboro, to its northern terminus at U.S. Route 340, south of the Potomac River bridge and east of Harpers Ferry. The region includes the communities of Neersville and Loudoun Heights. Confederate guerilla John Mobberly was from the region and during the last two years of the war he successfully disputed control of the area through his daring exploits, until his assassination outside of Neersville in April of 1865.
