Boydton, Virginia, the county seat of Mecklenburg County, is located, approximately, in the center of the county on U.S. Highway 58. Norfolk is 140 miles to the east, Richmond is 95 miles northeast, Danville is 60 miles west, and Raleigh, North Carolina, is 80 miles south.

After what seems a long prep period, the Courthouse has begun its renovation, expansion and restoration and the Boydton Life Station eagerly awaits the finish of its new facility. At the same time the Boydton United Methodist Church's new Fellowship Hall has now grown to a point, two stories tall and the medical facility "HealthCare on The Square" is seeing the end near on the major repair to its rear wall. This last project will prevent any further water intrusion into the ground floor quarters of the dental offices which are housed in this historic building. In sum, about $13 million is being spent on these four projects. Boydton is looking forward to the increased vitality that these projects bring to the town and the surrounding county.
