The Buckland Preservation Society's Mission

The Buckland Preservation Society is a non-profit foundation formed in 2003 for conducting a state-of-the-art, interdisciplinary investigation of the archaeology, architecture, industrialization, transportation, cultural landscape, and historical record of the Town of Buckland, and the earlier Manohoac Indian Settlement along the Susquehanna Plain Path (Old Carolina Road)

on Broad Run.

 

The society is devoted to preserving this site for the Commonwealth of Virginia and the Nation. We employ the latest technology and assistance from important scholars through grants, and the help of interested  property owners, to realize this nationally significant project.
