Blundon Corner is a populated place and locale in Northumberland County, in the U.S. state of Virginia. It is located at the intersection of VA-695 and VA-640. It appears as a location on Virginia DOT county maps. The road to Edwardsville was constructed in the 1910s.
Blundon's Corner is the site of "Arcadia", the Blundon family home. The first structure on the site was built in 1793 by John Doxey. The Blundons purchased it in 1878 when it was known as Pleasant View and expanded it substantially in 1890. It was the family home into the late 1940s, but then fell into disrepair, before being rescued in the 1970s.
