Halltown is an unincorporated community on land that was originally owned by William Hall that is along Flowing Springs Run in Jefferson County, West Virginia, USA. Halltown is located off of U.S. Route 340 on West Virginia Route 230 between Charles Town and Bolivar. A few houses, a fork in the road, a tiny post office, and the large Halltown Paper Plant are the distinguishing features of the community.
History
The land on which Halltown is located was granted by Lord Fairfax to William Hall in 1763, then a part of Frederick County, Virginia, later Berkeley and after 1801, Jefferson County. Hall erected a grist mill on the site and later a fulling mill at the center of what later formed into the village of Halltown.
