- Burgh_Westra abstract "Burgh Westra is a historic home located near Gloucester, Gloucester County, Virginia. Built between 1842-1851, the estate's original design is a two and a half story brick dwelling in the Gothic Revival style. In addition to the main house, the property contains an original dairy, a rebuilt carriage house, and a guest cottage. The extended property contains the original farm managers house and working fields along the estate's nearly 2-mile long lane. Burgh Westra's floor plan is based upon Design III in Cottage Residences, by Andrew Jackson Downing. The name "Burgh Westra" comes from the Scottish phrase for "Village of the West", to symbolizing the cottage's location on the North River, Virginia. Burgh Westra's builder was Warner Throckmorton Taliaferro of Belleville Plantation on the North River for his son, Dr. Philip Taliaferro. Dr. Taliaferro discussed potential designs and a desire to built the estate on the eventual land tract while studying medicine in Scotland. During the Civil War, Dr. Taliaferro accompanied his step-brother, William B. Taliaferro, a general in the Confederate army, to serve with General Stonewall Jackson (1824–1863) in the Shenandoah Valley as an aide-de-camp. Upon returning to Burgh Westra during the war, Dr. Taliaferro opened up his estate as a hospital for wounded soldiers. At least two unidentified confederate soldiers who died at Burgh Westra are buried at nearby Ware Episcopal Church. The home continues to be owned by the original family and is suspected to be the oldest continual ownership of a house in Gloucester County, Virginia. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.".
