Bogota, also known as Bogota Farm, is a historic home and farm and national historic district located near Port Republic, Rockingham County, Virginia. The main house was built between 1845 and 1847, and is a two-story, five-bay, brick Greek Revival style dwelling. It features a brick cornice, stepped-parapet gable end walls, and a low-pitched gable roof. The front facade has a two-story pedimented portico sheltering the center bay. Also on the property are the contributing smokehouse, two slave dwellings, a garden area, bank barn, log house, and two archaeological sites including a possible slave cemetery. On June 9, 1862, Bogota was the scene of action during the Battle of Port Republic. and Accompanying four photos Read more on Wikipedia
