Mechanicsville is an unincorporated community in Hanover County, about 10 miles northeast of downtown Richmond. The community takes its name from mechanics and craftsmen who worked at local mills in the early nineteenth century. The Battle of Mechanicsville on June 26, 1862, was the first battle of the Seven Days Battles in the Peninsula Campaign, part of General Robert E. Lee's first major offensive action as commander of the Army of Northern Virginia.
Today Mechanicsville is primarily a residential and retail suburb of Richmond, linked to the city by Mechanicsville Turnpike (U.S. Route 360) and Interstate 295. Retail development clusters along Bell Creek Road and the Route 360 corridor. The Richmond National Battlefield Park maintains Cold Harbor Battlefield and Gaines' Mill Battlefield on land partly within the Mechanicsville area, commemorating some of the highest-casualty engagements of the Civil War.
Hanover County itself is the birthplace of Patrick Henry, the revolutionary orator, and the site of Scotchtown, his preserved home now operating as a museum. Memorial Regional Medical Center in Mechanicsville is a significant local employer.
