Calder Loth Interview Clip: Waterford, Va. NHL Oral History Project

National Historic Landmarks

Transcript

LOTH: I must say that it is probably the largest number of easements on a very concentrated area, certainly in the state. I don't know how it figures nationally, but I would say it's right up there. I'm not aware of any kind of similar program like that, that involves so many properties, so many property owners on relatively small village or area.

Description

Calder Loth, an architectural historian and former easement coordinator in Virginia, talks about how the Waterford Historic District has the highest concentration of easements of any area in Virginia, if not in the nation. He states that the district is unique because it involves so many properties and property owners, all in a relatively small area.
