Canova is an unincorporated community in Prince William County, Virginia.[1] The community is located on Canova Drive, which is a former section of State Route 234 (Dumfries Road) and about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) north of Hoadly Road. The town consists of a church and multiple housing areas. There used to be a country store and gas station, but after SR 234 (Dumfries Road) was realigned and widened in 2005, it bypassed the town and forced it to close.[2]
