Hayes

Built around the road links of Virginia’s Middle Peninsula, Hayes grew into a mostly residential community in Gloucester County. It lies near the York River, a tidal estuary flowing east toward Chesapeake Bay and separating Gloucester County from the Yorktown side of the water. This is Tidewater Virginia, with low-lying ground, wooded creeks and local routes leading toward Gloucester Point. The Virginia Institute of Marine Science at nearby Gloucester Point is a leading centre for coastal and estuarine research. Across the river, Yorktown was the site of the British surrender in 1781, a decisive moment in the American Revolutionary War.
