of the Neabsco Iron works; the forest has reclaimed the slopes. There are some pits, some stones of the furnaces and foundations of buildings. There are also intact service roads and road remnants, eroded water races. Slag from Iron blasting litter the terraced work areas on the slope above the two furnace locations. The Creek and Neabsco Harbor are now silted in due to deforesting for tobacco farming and rampant development upstream. As a reference, the Neabsco Industrial plantation, contained an approximate area from South at Powell's Creek to North at the Occoquan River, East at Route one, and West at a north–south line drawn at Bonita Fitzgerald Drive. The Occoquan and Neabsco works eventually stripped most of this area of its trees, mostly for charcoal. The site, being just a fraction of the original industrial plantation, is unique for the Woodbridge, Virginia, area. Most large tracts of land in Woodbridge have been developed, including most of the Neabsco Watershed, but the site is located in a very steep valley of the Neabsco Creek. As Interstate 95 was built adjacent to the site and crosses Neabsco Creek, some of the works may have been destroyed forever. The site is not a protected area, just a neglected hard to access forest and creek area mostly used for off-roading and some hiking. There are some preliminary plans in Prince William County to protect the area as historical.
