Westham, Virginia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Westham was an unincorporated town in Henrico County, Virginia.
Westham Station was established in the 1880s on the Richmond and Allegheny Railroad (R&A), which was laid along the towpath of the James River and Kanawha Canal. The R&A railroad was acquired by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway (C&O) in the 1890s. Nearby, the Westham Bridge was built across the James River in 1911.
The historic Westham Station building was relocated to a Richmond city park in 1961.
