"Centreville VA. "Sometimes there is more in a name than we are willing to admit!  Centreville VA did not get its name by accident! 

The town of Centreville was established in by the Virginia General Assembly in response to petitions by local landowners.  Originally, in the 1760s, the area was known as Newgate due to the popularity of proximity to Newgate tavern. The town was centrally located to Alexandria, Colchester, Dumfries and Middleburg, thus the name "Centreville!"  Centerville VA became part of Fairfax County in 1798 when the boundaries between Loudoun County and Fairfax County were changed.  Today, Centreville still holds that distinction.  From Centreville to Washington DC is 21.5 miles, and to Dulles International Airport it is 10.9 miles.
