Clear Brook: Virginia farmland with a presence of industry and recreation

Agriculture, industry and recreation meet in Clear Brook, Virginia. Three places in the heart of the unincorporated community exemplify this mix of land uses. More than 50 acres of grass fields, tree-lined paths and lakeshore make up Clearbrook Park, one of the most visited green spaces in Frederick County. Rows of corn grow catty-corned to the park, while mounds of crushed stone rise from a limestone quarry directly south. Clear Brook spans from the north end of Winchester to the West Virginia state line, with Interstate 81 and U.S. Route 11 cutting through the middle. Parks and industrial sites gravitate toward the highways, with farms and clusters of homes to the east and west. There are few places to shop and eat, but it’s less than 10 miles to Winchester’s big-box retail and downtown dining.
Clear Brook is known for its rich agricultural heritage, where fertile fields and family farms shape the heart of the community.

Recreation in the heart of the community at Clearbrook Park

Every year, hundreds of thousands of people visit Clearbrook Park, where gravel paths and a paved road connect the pickleball courts, volleyball pits, playground and small lake. The park is one of the most popular in the area, and it has been for decades, says Brian Doman, a Realtor at Preslee Real Estate and a Strasburg native. “Clearbrook Park is a huge area for people to gather around. When I was younger, I used to play ball games up there.” The park opens its swimming pool from May to early September, and county residents get discounted season passes. To the south, Frederick County National Little League plays baseball and softball games at Stonewall Park, home to several fields. A large limestone quarry sprawling between Clearbrook Park and Stonewall Park employs about 100 people. Mining operations and the comings and goings of trucks sometimes create noise. Only a few homes are in the immediate area of the quarry.
