View east along MD 956 in Pinto

The Winchester Road was a highway first blazed in the Colonial era to connect Cumberland with Winchester, Virginia. The old road, whose northernmost part is now MD 53, crossed the North Branch Potomac River at Pinto.[7] A bridge over the river connecting Pinto with the Allegany Ballistics Laboratory remained as late as 1950. The road crossed the military installation and ascended Knobly Mountain, meeting present-day WV 956 just west of WV 28.[8] The bridge was removed at a later date. In 1967, a new highway featuring a crossing of a North Branch Potomac River was completed between US 220 and WV 28 to provide better access from Maryland to the government reservation and to WV 28.[9] By 1985, the highway was signed as MD 956 and WV 956.[10] MD 956 was designated Patriot Parkway in 2004.[11]
