The proposed Greenwood-Afton Rural Historic District is located in northwestern Albemarle County and incorporates a small area of northeastern Nelson County and southeastern Augusta County, encompassing approximately 16,200 acres. A number of historic villages are located within the proposed area, including [[Yancey Mills]], [[Afton]], [[Greenwood]] and the historically African-American enclaves of [[Newtown]] and [[Freetown]].
