About Upperville

Upperville is an unincorporated census-designated place (CDP) in Fauquier and Loudoun Counties in Virginia, United States, along U.S. Route 50, fifty miles from downtown Washington, D.C.. Founded in the 1790s along Pantherskin Creek, it was originally named Carrstown by first settler Josephus Carr.
