  • Malvern Hill es un lugar que se encuentra en la orilla norte del río James en el condado de Henrico, Virginia, a unas dieciocho millas (29 km) al sureste de Richmond. El 1 de julio de 1862, fue escenario de la batalla de Malvern Hill, una de las batallas de los Siete Días de la Guerra Civil Estadounidense. El nombre se refería principalmente a la casa construida por Thomas Cocke en el siglo XVII, que permaneció en su familia durante muchos años. Su nombre deriva de , en Inglaterra.​ La histórica casa fue destruida por un incendio en 1905 y todo lo que queda son los gabletes, incluyendo una chimenea. Sin embargo, las ruinas son arquitectónicamente significativas como los restos de una de las pocas casas de diseño cruciforme conocidas en Virginia. "La única chimenea sobreviviente es quizás el mejor ejemplo deconstrucción de ladrillo del siglo XVII en el estado".​ El sitio de origen figuró en tres guerras. Lafayette acampó allí dos veces en 1781 durante la Guerra Revolucionaria Americana. La milicia de Virginia también acampó allí en la Guerra de 1812. Sin embargo, es mejor conocido como el sitio de la sangrienta batalla de la Guerra Civil Estadounidense de Malvern Hill en 1862.​ En agosto de 2016, los descendientes de William H. Ferguson Sr. (1885-1984) pusieron a la venta la Granja Malvern Hill de 871 acres por $10.6 millones. Fue comprado por la organización sin fines de lucro Capital Region Land Conservancy (CRLC) en febrero de 2018 por $6.6 millones. Posteriormente, CRLC registró servidumbres de conservación para proteger 465 acres con el Departamento de Recursos Históricos de Virginia y 25 acres con la Virginia Outdoors Foundation. Porciones de la propiedad fueron donadas al Condado de Henrico para el futuro sitio de un espacio abierto para la educación y la recreación pasiva, así como a la James River Association para el lanzamiento de una canoa/kayak en Turkey Island Creek que desemboca en el río James en el Refugio Nacional de Vida Silvestre Presquile. Capital Region Land Conservancy tiene los 380 acres restantes que se incluirán en el parque nacional de Richmond National Battlefield Park. (es)
  • Malvern Hill stands on the north bank of the James River in Henrico County, Virginia, USA, about eighteen miles southeast of Richmond. On 1 July 1862, it was the scene of the Battle of Malvern Hill, one of the Seven Days Battles of the American Civil War. The name referred primarily to the house built by Thomas Cocke in the 17th century, which remained in his family for many years. It was named after the Malvern Hills in England. The historic home was gutted by a fire in 1905 and all that now remains are end gables, including a fireplace. Nevertheless, the ruins are architecturally significant as the remains of one of few known cruciform design houses in Virginia. "The one surviving chimney is perhaps the finest example of seventeenth century diaper brickwork in the state." The home site figured in three wars. Lafayette camped there twice in 1781 during the American Revolutionary War. Virginia militia also camped there in the War of 1812. However, it is best known as the site of bloody American Civil War Battle of Malvern Hill in 1862. In August 2016, the 871-acre Malvern Hill Farm was listed for sale for $10.6 million by the descendants of William H. Ferguson Sr. (1885–1984). It was purchased by the non-profit (CRLC) in February 2018 for $6.6 million. CRLC subsequently recorded conservation easements to protect 465 acres with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources and 25 acres with the Virginia Outdoors Foundation. Portions of the property were then gifted to Henrico County for the future site of an open space area for education and passive recreation as well as the James River Association for a canoe/kayak launch into Turkey Island Creek that flows into the James River at Presquile National Wildlife Refuge. Capital Region Land Conservancy is holding the remaining 380 acres to be included into the National Park Service Richmond National Battlefield Park. (en)
