MARKET COMMENTARY To say that current market conditions are unsettling would be an understatement. Investors are waking up daily to headlines of volatile stock prices, declining home values, rising oil prices, a collapsing U.S. dollar and an under-capitalized banking system. Recently, we awoke to news of Bear Stearns being bailed out by JP Morgan and the Federal Reserve at a price of $2 per share, which is approximately 1% of its trading price of roughly $150 per share a year ago. The equity markets continued the late 2007 retreat in the first quarter of 2008 with the S&P 500 Index down 9.4% and the Russell Midcap Index (1) down 10.0%. While not satisfied with negative results, we are pleased that the Fund outperformed its benchmark during the first quarter. Our economy is clearly slowing. Furthermore, we may be witnessing the end of a multi-decade debt boom. Bull markets tend to be driven in part by easy access to capital. Access to capital is supported by lending, which in turn is supported by faith and confidence. Currently, faith and confidence are lacking. As a result, we have been cautious in this environment. The Federal Reserve took unprecedented steps during the quarter to soften the blow, but probably won't be able to entirely offset this lack of confidence. During the quarter, the Federal Open Market Committee elected to lower the Fed Funds rate by 200 basis points and opened the discount window to broker dealers accepting an expanded list of assets as collateral. The Fed orchestrated the purchase of Bear Stearns by JP Morgan and agreed to guarantee the assets up to $29 billion to facilitate the orderly liquidation of their portfolio and avoid further market turmoil. These actions have gone a long way to restore investors' confidence that the Fed is appropriately focused on the financial 1 markets. Nonetheless, the flight to quality from risk continues. In previous updates, we have discussed the growing popularity of riskier investments. Early last year, spreads between the riskiest debt and Treasury securities had contracted to the lowest levels seen in many years. In the past few months we have seen spreads widen considerably, doubling from year-ago levels, as rumors swirl around the credit worthiness of many institutions. We believe investors will continue to gravitate to, and pay a premium for, companies with high quality balance sheets and relatively stable business models with good cash generation. The Fund has been, and continues to be, positioned to take advantage of this shift in investor sentiment. We have begun to search areas of the market where valuations have discounted the widely touted troubles of the day. While we remain cautious of companies whose assets and liabilities are difficult to assess, there are opportunities among those where the risk is in the companies' earnings which has been well telegraphed, is understood, and is reflected in valuations. Some of the depressed areas of the market, such as those related to housing and the consumer, have provided entry points to stocks at what we believe to be attractive valuations relative to their prospects in a recovery. We are reminded daily of the troubles the consumer faces and the difficulties in housing to the point of becoming numb to the news. Throughout the first quarter and into the beginning of the second, we have made some new investments in the Consumer Discretionary sector, an area in which we were underweighted for much of 2007. We believe now is the time to be planting a few seeds, recognizing that bad news may continue in the coming months, but that much of it has been accounted for in the valuations of many stocks. While investors' focus remains on troubles within the U.S. economy and financial markets, the drum beats on in much of the rest of the world. A slower U.S. economy will create a headwind for foreign economies, but it will not have the dampening effect it might have had a decade ago. We continue to favor companies with solid international operations, as the rising standard of living in other countries continues to create demand for products and services of these U.S. companies. New money is finding its way into individuals' pockets in many emerging markets which in turn is spent on toothpaste, beverages, cars, and computers. This demand should persist for far longer than the current weak domestic economy. Current pessimism surrounding our economy has created attractive valuations for some companies that will ride this wave of foreign wealth for years to come. Over the last year, the benefits of foreign exposure have become more apparent as slower growth for domestic operations has been partially offset by strong growth overseas. Additionally, a weak U.S. dollar has further aided earnings growth for companies doing business abroad as income is translated back into a relatively weak dollar. At some point this conversion will create a headwind for some of the names we own, but for now the benefits of owning these multinational businesses outweigh this risk. While we expect the markets to remain tumultuous in the short term, we believe this turbulence will present opportunities to buy companies at attractive prices and sell or reduce exposure to those for which we have become less enthusiastic. We will continue to seek opportunities that the current market presents to us, and carefully assess the investments we have already made. We look forward to reporting our progress to you in the summer. 2 THE FUND The Fund was up 3.4% over the twelve months ending March 31, 2008, and outperformed the broader market with the S&P 500 down 5.1% during that time. We are pleased to have outperformed the market, but we hope for better absolute returns over time. During this challenging investment environment we have emphasized a few themes in our stock selection process. We continue to believe quality large-cap stocks should have appeal. Large companies offer a number of benefits including ready access to capital, trading liquidity and international exposure. That said, large caps out performance of small caps could moderate or reverse near-term, given very depressed valuations for smaller companies. Despite the strong performance of large caps relative to small cap stocks over the last twelve months, the S&P 500's decline of 9.44% for the first quarter was barely ahead of a 9.90% decline for the Russell 2000, which is a common proxy for small cap performance. The Fund has the flexibility to tilt between growth and value stocks and we have had a growth bias over the last year. We believe investors may be willing to pay a premium for companies able to consistently post above average growth. This bias helped over the last year by this style bias, as growth stocks out performed value stocks based on a comparison of the S&P 500 Citigroup Value Index (2) (down 11.51%) and the S&P 500 Citigroup Growth Index (3) (up 2.68%). While this trend will undoubtedly sputter over short periods we feel the preference for growth stocks should persist for a while. While the S&P 500 posted negative performance over the past twelve months, we had a few bright spots that helped our performance. Energy holdings such as EOG Resources and XTO Energy performed well in tandem with rising natural gas prices. Within the energy sector, we have been shifting exposure from huge integrated oil & gas companies, which may have difficulty growing, towards companies with better growth profiles. For instance, we recently sold ConocoPhillips and used the proceeds to re-establish a position in Cameco, which is the world's largest uranium producer. We had taken profits in this stock in late 2006 and thought it was attractive once again following a substantial decline. Relative performance during the year was also helped by the market's two most downtrodden sectors: Financials and Consumer Discretionary. In the case of Financials, we picked up some ground by avoiding many of the well publicized disasters in that industry and relatively stable performance from core holdings such as BB&T and Berkshire Hathaway. Within the Financial sector, we continue to emphasize quality and transparency. As for the Consumer Discretionary space, which suffered a tough 2007, we benefited from being underweight the sector. On a final positive note, we also got a lift in the strong Materials space from Rio Tinto, which was our top performer over the year. Our performance was hurt by the Consumer Staples sector, which was a bright spot in 2007, but suffered in the early part of 2008. While benefiting from an overweight position in the group, poor performance from SABMiller and Walgreen hurt results though we continue to like both stocks on a long term basis. We are pleased with how the Fund has weathered the turbulent market and hope in our next report to discuss strong absolute returns in addition to relative 3 performance. We are excited about the fund's prospects and its potential to benefit from an economic recovery. We believe the strategy we have outlined above will help us achieve our overriding long term goal: to deliver competitive returns with comfortable risk. To learn more about our recent purchases please see below. As always if you would like to learn more about our strategy, please feel free to contact us. We look forward to reporting to you late this summer. (1) The RUSSELL MIDCAP INDEX measures the performance of the 800 smallest companies in the Russell 1000, which represent approximately 25% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 1000. (2) The S&P 500/CITIGROUP VALUE INDEX is a capitalization weighted index of all the stocks in the S&P 500 that have lower price-to-book ratios. (3) The S&P 500/CITIGROUP GROWTH INDEX is a capitalization weighted index of all the stocks in the S&P 500 that have higher price-to-book ratios. RECENT PURCHASES CAMECO CORPORATION (CCJ) is the world's largest uranium producer with roughly 550 million pounds of reserves. At 20 million pounds of annual production, the company accounts for roughly 20% of global uranium production. Moreover, Cameco is one of the few publicly traded ways to play the long term bullish outlook for uranium/nuclear energy and is the only "go to" name in the space for big money. Cameco has a healthy balance sheet with a debt to capitalization ratio of 18% and has been buying back stock. Moreover, free cash flow should ramp dramatically to over $1 billion within a few years. The company's second largest deposit, Cigar Lake, flooded in 2006 and is not expected to resume production until 2011 at the earliest. This, along with lower uranium prices and softer financial results, has caused significant deterioration in CCJ's share price. That said, with the stock trading around 1x Net Asset Value (NAV) compared to the stock's historical range of 1.5x-2.0x, we believe most of the bad news is priced in at current levels. MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATED (MAR) is a hotel franchiser/manager and time share developer. Marriott has nearly 2,900 lodging properties in the United States and 68 other countries across 18 brands. We are attracted to Marriott's royalty-like business model. Since it does not own the majority of its hotels, Marriott has a capital light business model driven by management, franchise and incentive fees. This translates into significant free cash flow. The company should be able to grow units under management 4%-5% annually, and has a robust pipeline with roughly 115,000 rooms either approved or under construction. Also encouraging is the company's commitment to buying back stock. Since 1998 the company has purchased over $7 billion worth of its own stock and believes that it should be able to purchase another $4.5-$5 billion worth over the next five years. 4 SABMILLER PLC (SBMRY) is a global brewer with sales across 60 countries. The company has over 150 beer brands including Miller, Peroni, Fosters, Castle, Redd's and Snow. SAB Miller has a truly global footprint that is skewed towards faster growing economies. (Snow is the leading beer in China). North America accounts for only 15-20% of total volumes with 32% of volumes from Africa and Asia, 20% from Latin America and 15% from Europe. While trading at a discount to domestic brewers such as Anheuser Busch, the company is growing faster, has a solid core of brands and is successfully introducing new concepts (i.e. Miller Chill). Moreover, we expect the company to be able to leverage its brand purchases, such as its recent purchase of Grolsch, across its global platform. Overall, we expect the company should be able to generate single digit sales growth while growing the bottom line in the low double digits. SanDisk Corporation (SNDK) is the world's largest supplier of innovative flash memory and data storage products. NAND flash memory, which founder Dr. Eli Harari and SNDK pioneered, has become one of the most important technology advancements of the past 20 years, all but replacing traditional film as the storage medium of choice and well on its way to doing the same to CDs and tapes in the market for portable audio. The company benefits not only from the sales of its own products, but from the general growth in NAND sales as most other market participants pay royalties to SNDK on their NAND sales. We believe flash memory will see increasing adoption as new consumer devices emerge (multimedia phones, solid state drives, etc.). We are also attracted to the company's intellectual property, which allows it to collect royalties from other NAND manufacturers. Using the low end of revenue and margin guidance, the company should be able to generate $2.00+ of EPS (earnings per share) in 2008 and appears cheap at these depressed levels.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. 13 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008 ================================================================================ 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Davenport Equity Fund (the Fund) is a no-load, diversified series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust (the Trust), an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on July 18, 1988. The Fund began operations on January 15, 1998. The Fund's investment objective is long term growth of capital through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks. Current income is incidental to this objective and may not be significant. The following is a summary of the Fund's significant accounting policies: Securities valuation -- The Fund's portfolio securities are valued as of the close of business of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Securities traded on a national stock exchange are valued based upon the closing price on the principal exchange where the security is traded. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities which are traded over-the-counter are valued at the last sales price, if available, otherwise, at the last quoted bid price. Fixed income securities will ordinarily be traded in the over-the-counter market and common stocks will ordinarily be traded on a national securities exchange, but may also be traded in the over-the-counter market. Short-term instruments (those with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. When market quotations are not readily available, securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. The prices provided by the pricing service are determined with consideration given to institutional bid and last sale prices and take into account securities prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings, institutional trading in similar groups of securities and developments related to specific securities. If a pricing service cannot provide a valuation, securities will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods consistent with those determined by the Board of Trustees. Such methods of fair valuation may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security, purchase price of security, subsequent private transactions in the security or related securities, or a combination of these and other factors. Repurchase agreements -- The Fund may enter into joint repurchase agreements with other funds within the Trust. The joint repurchase agreement, which is collateralized by U.S. Government obligations, is valued at cost which, together with accrued interest, approximates market. At the time the Fund enters into the joint repurchase agreement, the seller agrees that the value of the underlying securities, including accrued interest, will at all times be equal to or exceed the face amount of the repurchase agreement. In addition, the Fund actively monitors and seeks additional collateral, as needed. Share valuation -- The net asset value per share of the Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of the Fund is equal to the net asset value per share. Investment income -- Interest income is accrued as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Discounts and premiums on fixed-income securities purchased are amortized using the interest method. Security transactions -- Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis. 14 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ Common expenses -- Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the funds within the Trust based on relative net assets of each fund or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each fund. Distributions to shareholders -- Dividends arising from net investment income are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders of the Fund. Net realized short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed throughout the year and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at least once each year. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was as follows: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ORDINARY LONG-TERM YEAR ENDED INCOME CAPITAL GAINS TOTAL - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 31, 2008 $ 2,627,384 $13,238,570 $15,865,954 March 31, 2007 $ 1,012,305 $ 5,238,825 $ 6,251,130 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Federal income tax -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which the Fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, the Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made. In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund's intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years. The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of March 31, 2008: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cost of portfolio investments ......................... $ 131,036,465 ============= Gross unrealized appreciation ......................... $ 32,698,767 Gross unrealized depreciation ......................... (8,804,406) ------------- Net unrealized appreciation ........................... $ 23,894,361 Undistributed long-term gains ......................... 3,235,174 ------------- Accumulated earnings .................................. $ 27,129,535 ============= - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost for the Fund is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains and losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. 15 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48) "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Fund adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on September 30, 2007. Management analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on Federal income tax returns for all open tax years (tax years ended March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2008) for purposes of implementing FIN 48 and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statments. 2. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS During the year ended March 31, 2008, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, other than short-term investments and U.S. government securities, amounted to $58,825,093 and $59,308,456, respectively. 3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT The Fund's investments are managed by Davenport & Company LLC (the Adviser) under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser a fee, which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .75% of its average daily net assets. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the Adviser. MUTUAL FUND SERVICES AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Mutual Fund Services Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (Ultimus), Ultimus provides administrative, pricing, accounting, dividend disbursing, shareholder servicing and transfer agent services for the Fund. For these services, Ultimus receives a monthly fee from the Fund at an annual rate of .15% on its average daily net assets up to $25 million; .125% on the next $25 million of such net assets; and .10% on such net assets in excess of $50 million, subject to a minimum monthly fee of $4,000, plus a shareholder recordkeeping fee at the annual rate of $10 per shareholder account in excess of 1,000 accounts. In addition, the Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and costs of pricing the Fund's portfolio securities. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus, or of Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the Distributor), the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares and an affiliate of Ultimus. The Distributor receives no compensation from the Fund for acting as principal underwriter. COMPLIANCE CONSULTING AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Compliance Consulting Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus, Ultimus provides an individual to serve as the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer and to administer the Trust's compliance policies and procedures. For these services, the Fund pays Ultimus an annual base fee of $15,000 plus an asset-based fee equal to 0.01% per annum on net assets in excess of $100 million. 16 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 4. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS The Fund indemnifies the Trust's officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. 5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of March 31, 2008, the Fund does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements. However, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements reported on the statement of changes in net assets for a fiscal period. 17 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ================================================================================ The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of The Davenport Equity Fund of the Williamsburg Investment Trust: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of The Davenport Equity Fund (the "Fund") (a series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust) as of March 31, 2008, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Davenport Equity Fund at March 31, 2008, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Cincinnati, Ohio May 16, 2008 18 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ Overall responsibility for management of the Fund rests with the Board of Trustees.

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. Operating expenses, which are deducted from the Fund's gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the Fund. A mutual fund's ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period (October 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008). The table below illustrates the Fund's costs in two ways: Actual fund return - This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from the Fund's actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount of operating expenses that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for the Fund under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period." Hypothetical 5% return - This section is intended to help you compare the Fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the Fund's actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess the Fund's costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Note that expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only. The Fund does not charge transaction fees, such as purchase or redemption fees, nor does it carry a "sales load." The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions. More information about the Fund's expenses, including historical annual expense ratios, can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Fund's prospectus. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ENDING ACCOUNT VALUE ACCOUNT VALUE EXPENSES PAID OCT. 1, 2007 MARCH 31, 2008 DURING PERIOD* - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on Actual Fund Return $1,000.00 $ 911.80 $4.54 Based on Hypothetical 5% Return (before expenses) $1,000.00 $1,020.25 $4.80 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.95% for the period, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). 21 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND OTHER INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge upon request by calling toll-free 1-800-281-3217, or on the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) website at http://www.sec.gov.

Complete information will be computed and reported in conjunction with your 2008 Form 1099-DIV. 22 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ At an in-person meeting held on February 12, 2008, the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuance for a one-year period of the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser on behalf of The Davenport Equity Fund. Below is a discussion of the factors considered by the Board of Trustees along with the conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the Board's approval. In selecting the Adviser and approving the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreement. The principal areas of review by the Trustees were the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the reasonableness of the fees charged for those services. These matters were considered by the Independent Trustees consulting with experienced counsel for the Independent Trustees, who is independent of the Adviser. The Trustees' evaluation of the quality of the Adviser's services took into account their knowledge and experience gained through meetings with and reports of the Adviser's senior management over the course of the preceding year. Both short-term and long-term investment performance of the Fund was considered. The Fund's performance was compared to its performance benchmark and to that of competitive funds with similar investment objectives and to the Adviser's comparably managed private accounts. The Trustees also considered the scope and quality of the in-house capabilities of the Adviser and other resources dedicated to performing services for the Fund. The quality of administrative and other services, including the Adviser's role in coordinating the activities of the Fund's other service providers, were considered in light of the Fund's compliance with investment policies and applicable laws and regulations and of related reports by management and the Fund's independent public accountants in periodic meetings with the Trust's Audit Committee. The Trustees also considered the business reputation of the Adviser, the qualifications of its key investment and compliance personnel, and its financial resources. In reviewing the fees payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Trustees compared the advisory fees and overall expense levels of the Fund with those of competitive funds with similar investment objectives as well as the private accounts managed by the Adviser. The Trustees considered information provided by the Adviser concerning the Adviser's profitability with respect to the Fund, including the assumptions and methodology used in preparing the profitability information, in light of applicable case law relating to advisory fees. For these purposes, the Trustees took into account not only the fees paid by the Fund, but also so-called "fallout" benefits to the Adviser. The Trustees also considered the fact that all of the Fund's portfolio trades were executed by the Adviser at no cost to the Fund. In evaluating the Fund's advisory fees, the Trustees took into account the complexity and quality of the investment management of the Fund. Based upon their review of this information, the Independent Trustees concluded that: (i) based on both the short-term and the long-term performance of the Fund (which exceeded the returns of both its primary benchmark (the S&P 500 Index) and the average of funds within its Lipper category) and other services provided under the Investment Advisory Agreement, they believe that the Adviser has provided quality portfolio managment services to the Fund; (ii) although the advisory fees payable to the Adviser are in the higher range of fees for other comparably managed funds, they believe the fees to be reasonable given the quality of services provided by the Adviser; (iii) the total operating expense ratio of the Fund is lower than the average expense ratio for comparably managed funds, according to statistics derived from Morningstar, Inc., and (iv) the Adviser has further benefited the Fund's shareholders by executing portfolio transactions at no cost to the Fund. 23 THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ Given the size of the Fund and its expected growth, the Independent Trustees did not believe that at the present time it would be relevant to consider the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows, and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. The Independent Trustees also considered the "fallout" benefits to, and the profitability of, the Adviser but given the amounts involved viewed these as secondary factors in connection with the evaluation of the reasonableness of the advisory fees paid by the Fund. No single factor was considered in isolation or to be determinative to the decision of the Trustees to approve continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Rather the Trustees concluded, in light of a weighing and balancing of all factors considered, that it was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders to continue the Investment Advisory Agreement without modification to its terms, including the fees charged for services thereunder. 24 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE DAVENPORT EQUITY FUND INVESTMENT ADVISER Davenport & Company LLC One James Center 901 East Cary Street Richmond, Virginia 23219-4037 ADMINISTRATOR Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC P.O.

The first quarter of 2008 saw weakness in equity markets around the world as investors found themselves in the midst of a bona fide credit crunch brought on by the state of the U.S. housing market and its related side effects. Stocks in the U.S. fell almost 10%, the most difficult quarter since the bear market of 2002. Clearly, there are significant challenges facing the economy and the markets. In our opinion, recent actions taken by the Federal Reserve will work to stimulate the economy and calm fears of a financial meltdown. The Fed funds rate has been cut significantly and liquidity has been pushed into the system. Additionally, the Fed stepped in to orchestrate a takeover of Bear Stearns and opened its lending window to investment banks, a highly unusual and innovative strategy. While no single institution, not even the Fed, can fix the problems of the economy in a single action, we believe its recent aggressive steps will go a long way toward restoring confidence in the system. The net asset values of the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund have also suffered over this past fiscal year, as the stocks in each fund underperformed the S&P 500. We are quite disappointed, as we know you are, in these most recent results. When looking over the past year, the Funds' holdings in Financials, increased exposure to Consumer Discretionary stocks and low exposure to Energy stocks have been the primary drivers of the Funds' returns. A natural question is, "why stay with these consumer and bank-related investments when the price of energy goes up every day?" We have heard this type of question before. It often comes up at major inflection points in the markets, but may be focused on different companies or sectors each time. We believe the two dominant emotions that drive market turning points are fear and greed. We know that historically when fear grips the market, substantial opportunities are created in select stocks and sectors, and greed continues to drive the same groups higher and higher until something happens that will shift the focus. There have been three distinct periods over the last twenty years where a value approach, similar to that used in the management of your Funds, had very disappointing relative results. Each resulted from an extended period of outperformance by a few sectors, and coincided with a period where stocks with deep value characteristics performed poorly. In the 1990 period, much like today, Financials and other select groups were under stress and performed poorly, while a narrow group of growth stocks led the way. An inflection point in late 1990, led by aggressive Federal Reserve action, changed market leadership. At that time, the FBP Balanced Fund (the FBP Equity Fund was not started until July 30, 1993) was positioned to benefit from that changed leadership, which lasted for multiple years. The Technology bubble was a similar occurrence. The Funds lagged the indexes, as we did not own enough of the technology stocks that moved higher and higher in late 1999 and early 2000. Simultaneously we were adding to low P/E stocks, which didn't find a bottom until after the tech bubble burst. Again, market leadership changed, and the laggards of the previous period became the new winners. 2 The market's performance in 2007 and early 2008 has been driven by extended moves in late- stage cyclicals, principally the Energy, Utilities (energy influence) and Materials sectors. Our disciplines and process moved us into Energy correctly a number of years ago, prior to the substantial increase in the price of crude oil, but those same disciplines began to move us out much too early, thus holding back returns the last few years, especially in the fourth quarter of 2007. Additionally, as Consumer Discretionary stocks weakened in 2007, we began building positions in these early cyclicals, understanding that they would respond favorably to Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. This also held back returns over the past fiscal year. In a nutshell, we positioned the portfolios six to nine months too early. Therefore, driven by our bottom-up approach, the Funds are currently underweighted in the Energy, Utilities and Materials sectors. We believe these have been the glamorous stocks of this past cycle. These sectors typically outperform near the end of an economic expansion. With the economy in or near recession and with the substantial fiscal and money stimulus being applied, we believe we are in a period where early-stage cyclicals will resume market leadership. Thus, sectors such as Consumer Discretionary, Financial and Technology should perform relatively better as investors come to believe 2009 will be a better year economically than 2008. The FBP Funds' portfolios are positioned to benefit strongly as leadership changes to these early cyclical sectors, which we believe ultimately will be the case. As we look back at the extreme volatility in the first quarter, it appears the market is attempting to transition leadership from late-stage cyclicals to early-stage cyclicals. This leadership change will not likely occur overnight and we may well experience fits and starts, yet we are confident that this rotation is inevitable and will benefit the Funds. Since our last semi-annual report to you, we have added two new stocks to the portfolios of each Fund: Sealed Air Corporation and Dell Computer. Sealed Air is a worldwide leader in packaging with two major operating divisions: food packaging and protective packaging. The company has been faced with shrinking gross profit margins due in large part to higher costs for its petroleum-based resins used as raw materials for much of its products. We expect margins will benefit from declining oil prices and from capacity expansions that will locate plants in lower-cost regions which are closer to the end user of the product. Additionally, Sealed Air's food packaging business has an emphasis on meat packaging products, and the company should benefit from increasing meat consumption levels in foreign markets. This well-managed company trades substantially below its ten-year average valuation levels. Dell is a worldwide leader in technology hardware production. Dell maintains a very strong position as a premier provider of technology products around the world. It built this position by leveraging direct-to-consumer customer service and efficient manufacturing systems to offer high quality products at a low price. This strategy has recently been adjusted to include retail agreements with leading retail chains worldwide. We believe this strategy will prove to help the company regain sales momentum. The company has significant exposure to international markets and its retail expansion should serve to ramp up international revenues. We believe management has a heightened focus on cost control, improving operational efficiencies and margin improvement. 3 We also have eliminated Sprint Nextel and substantially reduced Altria. Sprint was eliminated following its first quarter earnings call when the company disclosed very disappointing subscriber losses and a disappointing outlook. Altria reached our full value estimate in anticipation of finally dividing the company into multiple companies. Altria has been a very successful long-term holding in each of the Funds. In summary, we believe the Funds' portfolio holdings represent excellent value and will respond accordingly as we move through the changes that occur over normal business cycles. Our staff continues to work diligently on your behalf with the same investment philosophy and approach developed twenty-three years ago. We appreciate your patience, confidence and support during this difficult market period and welcome any questions you may have.

Over time, this index has the potential to outpace the FBP Balanced Fund, which normally maintains at least 25% in bonds. Balanced funds have the growth potential to outpace inflation, but they will typically lag a 100% stock index over the long term because of the bond portion of their portfolios. However, the advantage of the bond portion is that it can make the return and principal of a balanced fund more stable than a portfolio completely invested in stocks. Results are also compared to the Consumer Price Index, a measure of inflation.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. 19 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008 ================================================================================ 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund (the "Funds") are no-load, diversified series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust (the "Trust"), an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on July 18, 1988. The FBP Value Fund seeks long term growth of capital through investment in a diversified portfolio comprised primarily of equity securities, with current income as a secondary objective. The FBP Balanced Fund seeks long term capital appreciation and current income through investment in a balanced portfolio of equity and fixed income securities assuming a moderate level of investment risk. The following is a summary of the Funds' significant accounting policies: Securities valuation --The Funds' portfolio securities are valued as of the close of business of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Securities traded on a national stock exchange are valued based upon the closing price on the principal exchange where the security is traded. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities which are traded over-the-counter are valued at the last sales price, if available, otherwise, at the last quoted bid price. It is expected that fixed income securities will ordinarily be traded in the over-the-counter market, and common stocks will ordinarily be traded on a national securities exchange, but may also be traded in the over-the-counter market. Call options written by the Funds are valued at the then current market quotation, using the ask price as of the close of each day on the principal exchanges on which they are traded. Short-term instruments (those with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. When market quotations are not readily available, securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. The prices provided by the pricing service are determined with consideration given to institutional bid and last sale prices and take into account securities prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings, institutional trading in similar groups of securities and developments related to specific securities. If a pricing service cannot provide a valuation, securities will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods consistent with those determined by the Board of Trustees. Such methods of fair valuation may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security, purchase price of security, subsequent private transactions in the security or related securities, or a combination of these and other factors. Share valuation -- The net asset value per share of each Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of each Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each Fund is equal to the net asset value per share. Investment income -- Interest income is accrued as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Discounts and premiums on fixed income securities purchased are amortized using the interest method. Repurchase agreements -- Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. A repurchase agreement, which is collateralized by U.S. Government obligations, is valued at cost which, together with accrued interest, approximates market value. At the time a Fund enters into a repurchase agreement, the Fund takes possession of the underlying securities and the seller agrees that the value of the underlying securities, including accrued interest, will at all times be equal to or exceed the face amount of the repurchase agreement. In addition, the Funds actively monitor and seek additional collateral, as needed. 20 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ Distributions to shareholders -- Dividends arising from net investment income are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders of each Fund. Net realized short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed throughout the year and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at least once each year. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Year Ordinary Long-Term Return of Total Ended Income Capital Gains Capital Distributions - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FBP Value Fund....... 03/31/08 $ 699,173 $3,480,780 $ 393,309 $4,573,262 03/31/07 $ 952,036 $3,914,731 $ -- $4,866,767 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FBP Balanced Fund.... 03/31/08 $1,403,338 $3,455,363 $ 219,267 $5,077,968 03/31/07 $1,457,134 $2,630,737 $ -- $4,087,871 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security transactions -- Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis. Common expenses -- Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the funds of the Trust which may be based on relative net assets of each fund or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each fund. Options transactions -- The Funds may write covered call options for which premiums are received and are recorded as liabilities, and are subsequently valued daily at the closing prices on their primary exchanges. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised increase the proceeds used to calculate the realized gain or loss on the sale of the security. If a closing purchase transaction is used to terminate a Fund's obligation on a call, a gain or loss will be realized, depending upon whether the price of the closing purchase transaction is more or less than the premium previously received on the call written. Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Federal income tax -- It is each Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a Fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, the Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made. In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Fund's intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years. 21 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of March 31, 2008: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FBP FBP VALUE FUND BALANCED FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cost of portfolio investments ................ $ 37,197,311 $ 47,763,721 ============ ============ Gross unrealized appreciation ................ $ 10,613,697 $ 11,648,842 Gross unrealized depreciation ................ (4,546,541) (3,485,073) ------------ ------------ Net unrealized appreciation .................. 6,067,156 8,163,769 Other temporary differences .................. (23,123) (94,462) ------------ ------------ Total distributable earnings ................. $ 6,044,033 $ 8,069,307 ============ ============ - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost for the FBP Balanced Fund is due to certain differences in the recognition of capital gains and losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to differing methods in the amortization of discounts and premiums on fixed income securities. For the year ended March 31, 2008, the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund reclassified return of capital distributions of $393,309 and $219,267, respectively, against paid-in capital on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such reclassifications, the result of permanent differences between the financial statement and income tax reporting requirements, have no effect on the Funds' net assets or net asset value per share. During the year ended March 31, 2008, the FBP Value Fund realized $370,882 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions (redemptions in which shareholders who redeemed Fund shares received securities held by the Fund rather than cash). The Fund recognizes a gain on in-kind redemptions to the extent that the value of the distributed securities on the date of redemption exceeds the cost of those securities. Such gains are not taxable to the Fund and are not required to be distributed to shareholders. The Fund has reclassified this amount against paid-in capital. This reclassification is reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such reclassification, the result of permanent differences between the financial statement and income tax reporting requirements, has no effect on the Fund's net assets or net asset value per share. On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48") "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Funds' tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Each Fund adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on September 30, 2007. Management analyzed the Funds' tax positions taken on Federal income tax returns for all open tax years (tax years ended March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2008) for purposes of implementing FIN 48 and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. 2. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS During the year ended March 31, 2008, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, other than short-term investments and U.S. government securities, amounted to $14,113,924 and $21,769,897, respectively, for the FBP Value Fund and $16,843,965 and $19,612,100, respectively, for the FBP Balanced Fund. 22 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT The Funds' investments are managed by Flippin, Bruce & Porter, Inc. (the "Adviser") under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, each Fund pays the Adviser a fee, which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .70% of its average daily net assets up to $250 million; .65% of the next $250 million of such net assets; and .50% of such net assets in excess of $500 million. Certain Trustees and officers of the Trust are also officers of the Adviser. MUTUAL FUND SERVICES AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Mutual Fund Services Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC ("Ultimus"), Ultimus provides administrative, pricing, accounting, dividend disbursing, shareholder servicing and transfer agent services for the Funds. For these services, Ultimus receives a monthly fee from each Fund at an annual rate of .15% of its average daily net assets up to $25 million; .125% of the next $25 million of such net assets; and .10% of such net assets in excess of $50 million, subject to a minimum monthly fee of $4,000, plus a shareholder recordkeeping fee at the annual rate of $10 per shareholder account in excess of 1,000 accounts. In addition, each Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and costs of pricing the Funds' portfolio securities. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus, or of Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the "Distributor"), the principal underwriter of each Fund's shares. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Funds) for acting as principal underwriter. COMPLIANCE CONSULTING AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Compliance Consulting Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus, Ultimus provides an individual to serve as the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer and to administer the Funds' compliance policies and procedures. For these services, the Funds pay Ultimus an annual base fee of $16,800 plus an asset-based fee equal to 0.01% per annum on the Funds' aggregate net assets in excess of $100 million. 4.

23 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 5. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS The Funds indemnify the Trust's officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. 6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of March 31, 2008, the Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements. However, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements reported on the statement of changes in net assets for a fiscal period. 24 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ================================================================================ The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund of the Williamsburg Investment Trust We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund (the "Funds") (each a series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust), as of March 31, 2008, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund at March 31, 2008, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Cincinnati, Ohio May 16, 2008 25 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ Overall responsibility for management of the Funds rests with the Board of Trustees.

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other operating expenses. Operating expenses, which are deducted from each Fund's gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the Funds. A mutual fund's ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period. The table below illustrates each Fund's costs in two ways: Actual fund return - This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from each Fund's actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount of operating expenses that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Funds. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period (October 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008). To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for the Funds under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period." Hypothetical 5% return - This section is intended to help you compare the Funds' costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that each Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the returns used are not the Funds' actual returns, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess each Fund's costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Note that expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only. The Funds do not charge transaction fees, such as purchase or redemption fees, nor do they carry a "sales load." The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions. More information about the Funds' expenses, including annual expense ratios for the past five fiscal years, can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Funds' prospectus.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, certain dividends paid by the Funds may be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15%, as provided by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003. The FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund intend to designate up to a maximum amount of $4,179,953 and $4,858,701, respectively, as taxed at a maximum rate of 15%. Additionally, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, 100% and 75% of the dividends paid from ordinary income by the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund, respectively, qualified for the dividends received deduction for corporations. As required by federal regulations, complete information will be computed and reported in conjunction with your 2008 Form 1099-DIV. 29 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ At an in-person meeting held on February 12, 2008, the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuance for a one-year period of the Investment Advisory Agreements with the Adviser on behalf of the FBP Value Fund and the FBP Balanced Fund. Below is a discussion of the factors considered by the Board of Trustees along with their conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the Board's approvals. In selecting the Adviser and approving the most recent annual continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The principal areas of review by the Trustees were the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the reasonableness of the fees charged for those services. These matters were considered by the Independent Trustees consulting with experienced counsel for the Independent Trustees, who is independent of the Adviser. The Trustees' evaluation of the quality of the Adviser's services took into account their knowledge and experience gained through meetings with and reports of the Adviser's senior management over the course of the preceding year. Both short-term and long-term investment performance of the Funds was considered. Each Fund's performance was compared to its performance benchmark and to that of competitive funds with similar investment objectives and to the Adviser's comparably managed private accounts. The Trustees also considered the scope and quality of the in-house capabilities of the Adviser and other resources dedicated to performing services for the Funds. The quality of administrative and other services, including the Adviser's role in coordinating the activities of the Funds' other service providers, were considered in light of the Funds' compliance with investment policies and applicable laws and regulations and of related reports by management and the Funds' independent public accountants in periodic meetings with the Trust's Audit Committee. The Trustees also considered the business reputation of the Adviser, the qualifications of its key investment and compliance personnel, and its financial resources. In reviewing the fees payable under the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees compared the advisory fees and overall expense levels of each Fund with those of competitive funds with similar investment objectives as well as the private accounts managed by the Adviser. The Trustees considered information provided by the Adviser concerning the Adviser's profitability with respect to each Fund, including the assumptions and methodology used in preparing the profitability information, in light of applicable case law relating to advisory fees. For these purposes, the Trustees took into account not only the fees paid by the Funds, but also so-called "fallout" benefits to the Adviser, such as the benefits of research made available to the Adviser by reason of brokerage commissions generated by the Funds' securities transactions. The Trustees also reviewed the revenue sharing arrangements relating to the Funds, whereby fees are paid by the Adviser to various intermediaries that direct assets to the Funds. In evaluating the Funds' advisory fees, the Trustees took into account the complexity and quality of the investment management of the Funds. Based upon their review of this information, the Independent Trustees concluded that: (i) based on the long-term performance of each Fund and the other services provided under the Investment Advisory Agreements, they believe that the Adviser has provided quality services to the Funds as compared to similarly managed funds and comparable private accounts managed by the Adviser; (ii) although the advisory fees payable to the Adviser by each Fund are in the higher range of fees for other comparably managed funds, they believe the fees to be reasonable given the scope and quality of services provided by the Adviser; and (iii) the total operating expense ratio of each Fund is lower than the average expense ratio of comparably managed funds, according to statistics derived from Morningstar, Inc. Given the size of the Funds and their expected growth, the Independent Trustees did not believe that at the present time it would be relevant to consider the extent to which economies 30 THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ of scale would be realized as the Funds grow, and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. The Independent Trustees also considered the "fallout" benefits to, and the profitability of, the Adviser but given the amounts involved viewed these as secondary factors in connection with the evaluation of the reasonableness of the advisory fees paid by the Funds. No single factor was considered in isolation or to be determinative to the decision of the Trustees to approve continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreements. Rather the Trustees concluded, in light of a weighing and balancing of all factors considered, that it was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to continue its Investment Advisory Agreement without modification to its terms, including the fees charged for services thereunder. 31 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE FLIPPIN, BRUCE & PORTER FUNDS ============================== INVESTMENT ADVISER LEGAL COUNSEL Flippin, Bruce & Porter, Inc.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA ================================================================================ LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS MAY 22, 2008 ================================================================================ THE JAMESTOWN BALANCED FUND For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Balanced Fund returned 3.0% versus a return of -0.7% for the Lipper Balanced Fund Index, -5.1% for the S&P 500 Index and 0.6% for a blend of 60% S&P 500 Index and 40% Lehman Brothers Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit Index. After reaching a modest all-time high in October, 2007, equity markets were pressured by a combination of a weakening economy, restrictive credit, high energy prices, and historically large write-offs at financial institutions. For the twelve months, high quality bonds outperformed equities as recession fears sent stock prices tumbling in the first calendar quarter of 2008. Fixed income securities contributed positively to The Jamestown Balanced Fund's performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, as bond interest payments and price appreciation contributed to total return. The performance of the fixed income portfolio was essentially in line with its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit Index (the "Lehman Index"), which rose 8.9% during the twelve month period ended March 31, 2008. The Fund's duration was shorter than the Lehman Index at the end of the period, expressing our view that U.S. Treasury yields had declined to unattractively low levels as a result of the flight to quality. Sector allocations for the fixed income portfolio are overweight corporate bonds and agency mortgage-backed securities while underweight U.S. Treasuries. In our opinion, the historically wide yield spreads may enable these sectors to earn greater returns than the prospective returns on U.S. Treasury securities. During the last twelve months, the negative impact of sector weightings and duration strategy on fixed income performance was offset by effective positioning across the yield curve. The portfolio benefited from the dramatic steepening of the yield curve as short-term interest rates plummeted during the first quarter of 2008. Sector and stock selection helped the equity portion of the Fund outperform the S&P 500 Index by over 6% for the 12 months. Sector performance benefited primarily from our underweight in the Financial sector, which was the worst performing sector in the S&P 500 over the trailing twelve months (-27.7%). Stock selection was driven by strong performance of the Fund's holdings in the Financial and Health Care sectors. Good stock selection in Financials was evidenced by our overweight in insurance stocks, which did not suffer as badly from credit issues, and an underweight in bank and capital market stocks. Equity valuations are in-line with historical levels on an absolute basis and we believe are attractive relative to high quality fixed income alternatives. However, modest economic growth is likely to pressure earnings growth over the next year. As a result, we have positioned The Jamestown Balanced Fund slightly more conservatively. As of March 31, 2008, the Fund had 6% in cash equivalents, 32% in fixed income securities, and 62% in equity securities. The equity portion of the Fund currently emphasizes companies that are more exposed to capital spending and faster growing international economies. As a result, the Fund is overweight in the Industrial and Technology sectors. In addition, we find Health Care stocks attractively priced for their potential growth. This also provides some cushion to the portfolio as economic and earnings growth slows. The Financial sector remains the largest underweight in the portfolio. The equity portion of the Fund trades at 13.1x 2008 estimated earnings, which are forecast to grow 14.8%. This compares to the S&P 500's estimated earnings growth of 5.1% trading at 15.3x estimated earnings. In addition to aggressively cutting interest rates, the Federal Reserve took several, unprecedented actions to help ease the liquidity crisis troubling the markets. The Federal Reserve facilitated J.P. Morgan's takeover of Bear Stearns when the investment bank ran into financial difficulties. They also opened the discount window to investment banks. Though the risk of a systematic crisis 1 seems to have lessened, the balance sheets of many major financial institutions remain under pressure. While the steps taken are encouraging, they will not solve the crisis overnight, as it will take time to restore confidence in the financial markets. THE JAMESTOWN EQUITY FUND For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Equity Fund returned 0.9% versus a return of -5.1% for the S&P 500 Index. After reaching a modest all-time high in October, 2007, equity markets were pressured by a combination of a weakening economy, restrictive credit, high energy prices, and historically large write-offs at financial institutions. The Fund's good relative performance was driven by both sector and stock selection. Sector performance benefited primarily from our underweight in the Financial sector, which was the worst performing sector in the S&P 500 over the trailing twelve months (-27.7%). Stock selection was driven by strong performance of the Fund's holdings in the Financial and Health Care sectors. Good stock selection in Financials was evidenced by our overweight in insurance stocks, which did not suffer as badly from credit issues, and an underweight in bank and capital market stocks. The Fund currently emphasizes companies that are more exposed to capital spending and faster growing international economies.

This compares to the S&P 500's estimated earnings growth of 5.1% trading at 15.3x estimated earnings. In addition to aggressively cutting interest rates, the Federal Reserve took several, unprecedented actions to help ease the liquidity crisis troubling the markets. The Federal Reserve facilitated J.P. Morgan's takeover of Bear Stearns when the investment bank ran into financial difficulties. They also opened the discount window to investment banks. Though the risk of a systematic crisis seems to have lessened, the balance sheets of many major financial institutions remain under pressure. While the steps taken are encouraging, they will not solve the crisis overnight, as it will take time to restore confidence in the financial markets. THE JAMESTOWN SELECT EQUITY FUND The Jamestown Select Equity Fund fell 3.1% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 versus a return of -5.1% for the S&P 500 Index. After reaching a modest all-time high in October, 2007, equity markets were pressured by a combination of a weakening economy, restrictive credit, high energy prices, and historically large write-offs at financial institutions. The Fund's good relative performance was driven primarily by strong stock selection, particularly in the Financial and Consumer Discretionary sectors. Partially offsetting this was weak stock selection in the Utility sector. Sector selection was also positive as the benefit of underweighting Financials more than offset a slight underweight in Energy. The Fund will continue to focus on stocks that we believe have the best earnings profiles and that are trading at reasonable valuations. The Fund is overweight in the Industrial, Technology, and Health Care sectors. The Financial sector remains the largest underweight in the portfolio. The portfolio trades at 12.1x 2007 estimated earnings, which are forecast to grow 17.7%. This compares to the S&P 500's estimated earnings growth of 5.1% trading at 15.3x estimated earnings.

THE JAMESTOWN TAX EXEMPT VIRGINIA FUND The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund performed well relative to other municipal bond funds over the last year as the credit market turmoil spread to the normally placid municipal bond market. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, the Fund gained 4.1%, compared to 6.2% for the Lehman 5-year Municipal Index and 2.5% for the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Fund Index. As of March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund had an average effective maturity of 4.3 years, an effective duration of 3.7 years, and a 30-day SEC yield of 2.93%, which results in a tax equivalent yield of 4.5% for investors in the 35% federal tax bracket. The Fund held no issues subject to Alternative Minimum Tax during 2007. The municipal bond market displayed unusual volatility during the last twelve months. After bond yields peaked in June, the municipal market saw the yield curve steepen sharply, quality spreads widen, and liquidity dry up at times. Market disruptions resulted in exceptional value in municipal bonds in August, November and especially in February. The severe sell-off in the second half of February that pushed yields higher and prices lower was triggered by forced selling from leveraged funds. Compelling relative valuations attracted enough demand for a modest rebound during March. Significant shifts in the steepness of the municipal yield curve rewarded holders of short maturity bonds but caused prices to drop for the longest maturities. Yields declined by 1.90% on AAA-rated general obligations with a 1-year maturity during the year ended March 31, 2008 while yields increased by 0.77% in the 30 year maturity, a shift in the slope of 267 basis points. With the Fund's maturity structure heavily weighted toward maturities under 10 years, the steeper curve aided the Fund's performance relative to longer maturity strategies. However, municipal bonds could not keep pace with the flight-to-quality bid that buoyed Treasuries during this period. Ratios of municipal yields to Treasuries exceeded 100% for every maturity on the yield curve as of March 31, 2008, indicating opportunity for traditional tax-exempt bond investors. Municipal bond insurers remained in the headlines because of worries over credit ratings. While some insurers replenished capital in order to maintain a triple-A credit rating for now, other companies have seen ratings downgrades. Only a couple of insurers have been unscathed by the subprime mortgage debacle. About 42% of the Fund's portfolio consists of insured bonds, with underlying credit ratings (without insurance) of double-A and single-A. The tax-exempt sector was also roiled by the collapse of the auction-rate securities (ARS) market when major bond dealers ceased putting up their own capital to support the debt. These instruments enabled issuers to sell long-term debt at short-term interest rates, subject to reset at periodic auctions. Many investors regarded ARS as money market instruments, but now that the auctions have failed, they are stuck with the paper until the issuers are able to refinance the debt. The Fund did not hold any ARS during the fiscal year. THE JAMESTOWN INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown International Equity Fund fell 3.6% and the Morgan Stanley EAFE Index returned -2.7%. International equity markets modestly outperformed their domestic counterparts over the trailing twelve months due to the weakness in the U.S. dollar. The U.S dollar declined 6% versus EAFE currencies over the past year. The U.S. housing market crisis and the associated impact on broader credit markets and the financial sector has taken its toll on global equity markets over the past year. While once 3 seemingly contained, the aftershocks have threatened to push key economies around the world into recession and dramatically slow the pace of economic growth. Traditional defensive safe havens like Consumer Staples, Utilities, and some Health Care companies fared relatively well in the latest market downturn. The Fund was helped over the past twelve months by strong stock selection among financial stocks, largely in continental Europe and Japan. The biggest detractor to performance was the Fund's underweight in the Materials sector, where supply constraints continued to drive commodity prices higher even in the face of slower economic growth. As of March 31, 2008, the largest sector underweights in the Fund are in the Material and Industrial sectors. The largest overweights are in the Technology and Energy sectors. The Fund significantly overweight Continental Europe (60%), modestly overweight Japan (24%), and heavily underweight the United Kingdom (13%). Sincerely, /s/ Charles M. Caravati, III /s/ Lawrence B.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. 40 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008 ================================================================================ 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund, The Jamestown Select Fund, The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund and The Jamestown International Equity Fund (individually, a "Fund", and, collectively, the "Funds") are each a no-load series of Williamsburg Investment Trust (the "Trust"), an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on July 18, 1988. The Jamestown Balanced Fund's investment objectives are long-term growth of capital and income through investment in a balanced portfolio of equity and fixed income securities. Capital protection and low volatility are important investment goals. The Jamestown Equity Fund's investment objective is long-term growth of capital through investment in a diversified portfolio composed primarily of common stocks. Current income is incidental to this objective and may not be significant. The Jamestown Select Fund's investment objective is long-term growth of capital through investment in a diversified portfolio composed primarily of common stocks. Current income is incidental to this objective and may not be significant. The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund's investment objectives are to provide current income exempt from federal income taxes and from the personal income taxes of Virginia, to preserve capital, to limit credit risk and to take advantage of opportunities to increase and enhance the value of a shareholder's investment. The Jamestown International Equity Fund's investment objective is to achieve superior total returns through investment in equity securities of issuers located outside the United States of America. The following is a summary of the Funds' significant accounting policies: Securities valuation -- The Funds' portfolio securities are valued as of the close of business of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Securities traded on a national stock exchange are generally valued based upon the closing price on the principal exchange where the security is traded. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities which are traded over-the-counter are valued at the last sales price, if available, otherwise, at the last quoted bid price. It is expected that fixed income securities will ordinarily be traded in the over-the-counter market, and common stocks will ordinarily be traded on a national securities exchange, but may also be traded in the over-the-counter market. Because the value of foreign securities may be materially affected by events occurring before the Fund's pricing time but after the close of the primary markets or exchanges on which such securities are traded, portfolio securities of The Jamestown International Equity Fund may be priced at their fair value as determined by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees. As a result, the prices of securities used to calculate The Jamestown International Equity Fund's net asset value per share 41 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Foreign securities are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service. Short-term instruments (those with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. When market quotations are not readily available, securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. The prices provided by the pricing service are determined with consideration given to institutional bid and last sale prices and take into account securities prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings, institutional trading in similar groups of securities and developments related to specific securities. If a pricing service cannot provide a valuation, securities will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods consistent with those determined by the Board of Trustees. Such methods of fair valuation may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security, purchase price of security, subsequent private transactions in the security or related securities, or a combination of these and other factors. Repurchase agreements -- The Funds may enter into joint repurchase agreements with each other and with other funds within the Trust. The joint repurchase agreement, which is collateralized by U.S. Government obligations, is valued at cost which, together with accrued interest, approximates market. At the time the Funds enter into the joint repurchase agreement, the seller agrees that the value of the underlying securities, including accrued interest, will at all times be equal to or exceed the face amount of the repurchase agreement. In addition, each Fund actively monitors and seeks additional collateral, as needed. Share valuation -- The net asset value per share of each Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of each Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each Fund is equal to the net asset value per share, except that shares of The Jamestown International Equity Fund are subject to a redemption fee of 2% if redeemed within 90 days of the date of purchase. For the years ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007, proceeds from redemption fees totaled $0 and $290, respectively. Investment income -- Interest income is accrued as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Discounts and premiums on fixed income securities purchased are amortized using the interest method. Distributions to shareholders -- Dividends arising from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders of The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund, The Jamestown Select Fund and The Jamestown International Equity Fund and are declared daily and paid monthly to shareholders of The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund. Net realized short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed throughout the year and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at least once each year. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. 42 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ The tax character of distributions paid during the periods ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007 was as follows:

Security transactions -- Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis. Securities traded on a "to-be-announced" basis -- The Jamestown Balanced Fund occasionally trades securities on a "to-be-announced" (TBA) basis. In a TBA transaction, the Fund has committed to purchase securities for which all specific information is not yet known at the time of the trade, particularly the face amount in mortgage-backed securities transactions. Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Fund, normally 15 to 45 days later. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other portfolio securities. Common expenses -- Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the Funds of the Trust based on relative net assets of each Fund or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each Fund. Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Federal income tax -- It is each Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a Fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, the Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made. In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Fund's intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 43 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 98% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years. The tax character of distributable earnings at March 31, 2008 was as follows:

The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost for the Funds is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and/or differing methods in the amortization of discounts and premiums on fixed income securities. During the year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown International Equity Fund utilized capital loss carryforwards of $3,253,955 to offset current year realized gains. As of March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Select Fund and The Jamestown International Equity Fund had the following capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXPIRES AMOUNT MARCH 31, - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jamestown Select Fund $ 229,908 2016 ============ Jamestown International Equity Fund $ 11,562,523 2011 620,341 2012 ------------ $ 12,182,864 ============ - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These capital loss carryforwards may be utilized in future years to offset net realized capital gains, if any, prior to distribution to shareholders. 44 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ In addition, The Jamestown Select Fund had net realized losses of $297,320 during the period November 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008, which are treated for federal income tax purposes as arising during the Fund's tax year ending March 31, 2009. These "post-October" losses may be utilized in future years to offset net realized capital gains prior to distributing such gains to shareholders. For the year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Balanced Fund reclassified $10,982 of overdistributed net investment income against accumulated net realized loss and The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund reclassified $5,857 of undistributed net investment income against accumulated net realized gains on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities due to permanent differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of certain debt obligations and paydown adjustments. Such reclassifications had no effect on the Funds' net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown International Equity Fund reclassified $19,347 of net realized losses from security transactions against undistributed net investment income on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities due to permanent differences in the recognition of capital gains and losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of forward foreign currency exchange contracts. Such reclassification has no effect on the Fund's net assets or net asset value per share. During the year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Equity Fund reclassified return of capital distributions of $252,510 against paid-in capital on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Additionally, during the year ended March 31, 2008, The Jamestown Select Fund reclassified $1,852 on net investment loss and $19 of distributions in excess of realized gains against paid-in capital on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such reclassifications, the result of permanent differences between the financial statement and income tax reporting requirements, have no effect on the Funds' net assets or net asset value per share. On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released FASB Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48") "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Funds' tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Each Fund adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on September 30, 2007. Management analyzed the Funds' tax positions taken on Federal income tax returns for all open tax years (tax years ended March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2008) for purposes of implementing FIN?48 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax is required in the financial statements. 45 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 2.

3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Each Fund's investments are managed by Lowe, Brockenbrough & Company, Inc. (the "Adviser") under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, The Jamestown Balanced Fund pays the Adviser a fee, which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of ..65% of its average daily net assets up to $250 million, .60% of the next $250 million of such net assets and .55% of such net assets in excess of $500 million. The Jamestown Equity Fund pays the Adviser a fee at an annual rate of ..65% of its average daily net assets up to $500 million and .55% of such net assets in excess of $500 million. The Jamestown Select Fund pays the Adviser a fee at an annual rate of .75% of its average daily net assets. The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund pays the Adviser a fee at an annual rate of .40% of its average daily net assets up to $250 million, .35% of the next $250 million of such net assets and .30% of such net assets in excess of $500 million. The Jamestown International Equity Fund pays the Adviser a fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of its average daily net assets. Certain Trustees and officers of the Trust are also officers of the Adviser. For the year ended March 31, 2008, the Adviser voluntarily undertook to limit the total operating expenses of The Jamestown Select Fund, The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund and The Jamestown International Equity Fund to 1.25%, .69% and 1.44%, respectively, of average daily net assets. Accordingly, the Adviser voluntarily waived $839, $22,202 and $103,492, respectively, of such Funds' investment advisory fees during the year ended March 31, 2008. The Adviser retains Oechsle International Advisors, LLC ("Oechsle") to provide The Jamestown International Equity Fund with a continuous program of supervision of the Fund's assets, including the composition of its portfolio, and to furnish advice and recommendations with respect to investments, investment policies and the purchase and sale of securities, pursuant to the terms of a Sub-Advisory Agreement. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Adviser, not the Fund, pays Oechsle a fee in the amount of one-half of the monthly advisory fee received by the Adviser, net of any investment advisory fee waivers. 46 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ MUTUAL FUND SERVICES AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Mutual Fund Services Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC ("Ultimus"), Ultimus provides administrative, pricing, accounting, dividend disbursing, shareholder servicing and transfer agent services for the Funds. For these services, Ultimus receives a monthly fee from each of The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund, The Jamestown Select Fund and The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund at an annual rate of .15% of its respective average daily net assets up to $25 million; .125% of the next $25 million of such net assets; and .10% of such net assets in excess of $50 million. From The Jamestown International Equity Fund, Ultimus receives a monthly fee at an annual rate of .20% of its average daily net assets up to $25 million; .175% of the next $25 million of such net assets; and .15% of such net assets in excess of $50 million. The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund, The Jamestown Select Fund, The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund and The Jamestown International Equity Fund are subject to a minimum monthly fee of $4,000, $4,000, $4,000, $3,500 and $4,000, respectively. In addition, each Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and costs of pricing the Funds' portfolio securities. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus, or of Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the "Distributor"), the principal underwriter of each Fund's shares and an affiliate of Ultimus. The Distributor receives no compensation from the Funds for acting as principal underwriter. COMPLIANCE CONSULTING AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Compliance Consulting Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus, Ultimus provides an individual to serve as the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer and to administer the Trust's compliance policies and procedures. For these services, the Funds pay Ultimus an annual base fee of $22,200 plus an asset-based fee equal to 0.01% per annum on total net assets in excess of $100 million. 4. BROKERAGE ARRANGEMENT In order to reduce the total operating expenses of The Jamestown Balanced Fund and The Jamestown Equity Fund, a portion of each Fund's operating expenses have been paid through an arrangement with a third-party broker-dealer who is compensated through commission trades. Payment of expenses by the broker-dealer is based on a percentage of commissions earned. Expenses reimbursed through the brokerage arrangement totaled $22,000 and $14,000 for The Jamestown Balanced Fund and The Jamestown Equity Fund, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2008. 47 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 5. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION With respect to The Jamestown International Equity Fund, amounts denominated in or expected to settle in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates on the following basis: A. The market values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate of exchange each day. B. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. C. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from those caused by changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 1) purchases and sales of foreign currencies, 2) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and 3) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Reported net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, resulting from changes in exchange rates. 6. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS The Jamestown International Equity Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts as a way of managing foreign exchange rate risk. The Fund may enter into these contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date as a hedge or cross-hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. The objective of the Fund's foreign currency hedging transactions is to reduce risk that the U.S. dollar value of the Fund's securities denominated in foreign currency will decline in value due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. All foreign currency exchange contracts are "marked-to-market" daily at the applicable translation rates resulting in unrealized gains or losses. Realized and unrealized gains or losses are included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. 48 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ As of March 31, 2008, The Jamestown International Equity Fund had forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding as follows:

CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS The Funds indemnify the Trust's officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. 49 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ 8. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of March 31, 2008, the Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements. However, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements reported on the statement of changes in net assets for a fiscal period. 50 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ================================================================================ The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Jamestown Balanced Fund, Jamestown Equity Fund, Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund, Jamestown International Equity Fund, and Jamestown Select Fund of the Williamsburg Investment Trust: We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Jamestown Balanced Fund, Jamestown Equity Fund, Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund, Jamestown International Equity Fund, and Jamestown Select Fund (the "Funds") (each a series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust), as of March 31, 2008, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years or periods in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years or periods in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Jamestown Balanced Fund, Jamestown Equity Fund, Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund, Jamestown International Equity Fund, and Jamestown Select Fund at March 31, 2008, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years or periods in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years or periods in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Cincinnati, Ohio May 16, 2008 51 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ Overall responsibility for management of the Funds rests with the Board of Trustees. The Trustees serve during the lifetime of the Trust and until its termination, or until death, resignation, retirement or removal. The Trustees, in turn, elect the officers of the Funds.

FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ In accordance with federal tax requirements, the following provides shareholders with information concerning distributions from ordinary income and net realized gains made by the Funds during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. Certain dividends paid by the Funds may be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15%, as provided by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003.

The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund and The Jamestown Tax Exempt Virginia Fund designate $4,040,275, $2,662,535 and $17,179, respectively, as long-term gain distributions. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, 51%, 100% and 100% of the dividends paid from ordinary income by The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund and The Jamestown Select Fund, respectively, qualified for the dividends received deduction for corporations. As required by federal regulations, complete information will be computed and reported in conjunction with your 2008 Form 1099-DIV. 54 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS ABOUT YOUR FUNDS' EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. A mutual fund's ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The expenses in the table below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period (October 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008). The table below illustrates each Fund's costs in two ways: ACTUAL FUND RETURN - This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from each Fund's actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount of operating expenses that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Funds. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for the Funds under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period." HYPOTHETICAL 5% RETURN - This section is intended to help you compare the Funds' costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that each Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the returns used are not the Funds' actual returns, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess each Fund's costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Note that expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only. The Funds do not charge sales loads. However, a redemption fee of 2% is applied on the sale of shares of The Jamestown International Equity Fund held for less than 90 days. The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions. More information about the Funds' expenses, including annual expense ratios for the prior five fiscal years, can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Funds' prospectus. 55 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS ABOUT YOUR FUNDS' EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ Beginning Ending Account Value Account Value Expenses October 1, March 31, Paid During 2007 2008 Period * - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE JAMESTOWN BALANCED FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on Actual Fund Return $ 1,000.00 $ 946.80 $ 4.77 Based on Hypothetical 5% Return (before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,020.10 $ 4.95 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE JAMESTOWN EQUITY FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on Actual Fund Return $ 1,000.00 $ 900.70 $ 4.61 Based on Hypothetical 5% Return (before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,020.15 $ 4.90 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE JAMESTOWN SELECT FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on Actual Fund Return $ 1,000.00 $ 894.40 $ 5.83 Based on Hypothetical 5% Return (before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,018.85 $ 6.21 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE JAMESTOWN TAX EXEMPT VIRGINIA FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on Actual Fund Return $ 1,000.00 $ 1,023.40 $ 3.49 Based on Hypothetical 5% Return (before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,021.55 $ 3.49 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE JAMESTOWN INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on Actual Fund Return $ 1,000.00 $ 918.00 $ 6.95 Based on Hypothetical 5% Return (before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,017.75 $ 7.31 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are equal to the Funds' annualized expense ratios for the period as stated below, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/366 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Below is a discussion of the factors considered by the Board of Trustees along with their conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the Board's approvals. In selecting the Adviser and approving the most recent annual continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The principal areas of review by the Trustees were the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and Oechsle and the reasonableness of the fees charged for those services. These matters were considered by the Independent Trustees consulting with experienced counsel for the Independent Trustees, who is independent of the Adviser. The Trustees' evaluation of the quality of the Adviser's services took into account their knowledge and experience gained through meetings with and reports of the Adviser's senior management over the course of the preceding year. Both short-term and long-term investment performance of the Funds was considered. Each Fund's performance was compared to its performance benchmark and to that of competitive funds with similar investment objectives and to the Adviser's comparably managed private accounts. The Trustees also considered the scope and quality of the in-house capabilities of the Adviser and other resources dedicated to performing services for the Funds. The quality of administrative and other services, including the Adviser's role in coordinating the activities of the Funds' other service providers, were considered in light of the Funds' compliance with investment policies and applicable laws and regulations and of related reports by management and the Funds' independent public accountants in periodic meetings with the Trust's Audit Committee. The Trustees also considered the business reputation of the Adviser and Oechsle, the qualifications of their key investment and compliance personnel, and the Adviser's financial resources. In reviewing the fees payable under the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees compared the advisory fees and overall expense levels of each Fund with those of competitive funds with similar investment objectives as well as the private accounts managed by the Adviser. The Trustees considered information provided by the Adviser concerning the Adviser's profitability with respect to each Fund, including the assumptions and methodology used in preparing the profitability information, in light of applicable case law relating to advisory fees. For these purposes, the Trustees took into account not only the fees paid by the Funds, but also so-called "fallout" benefits to the Adviser and Oechsle, such as the benefits of 58 THE JAMESTOWN FUNDS DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ research made available to the Adviser and Oechsle by reason of brokerage commissions generated by the Funds' securities transactions. The Trustees also reviewed the revenue sharing arrangements relating to the Funds, whereby fees are paid by the Adviser to various intermediaries that direct assets to the Funds. In evaluating the Funds' advisory fees, the Trustees took into account the complexity and quality of the investment management of the Funds. Based upon their review of this information, the Independent Trustees concluded that: (i) based on the 2007 performance of The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund, The Jamestown Select Fund and The Jamestown Tax-Exempt Virginia Fund, which exceeded the returns of their respective benchmarks, as well as the longer term performance of such Funds, they believe that the Adviser has provided quality portfolio managment services to the Funds; (ii) in spite of the disappointing performance of The Jamestown International Equity Fund in 2007 and prior periods, they believe that it is in the best interests of shareholders to continue the portfolio management services for Oechsle pending a definitive recommendation from the Adviser as to its plans for that Fund; (iii) the investment advisory fees of The Jamestown Balanced Fund, The Jamestown Equity Fund, The Jamestown Select Fund and The Jamestown Tax-Exempt Virginia Fund are competitive and each Fund's operating expense ratio is lower than the average expense ratio for comparably managed funds, according to statistics derived from Morningstar, Inc.; and (iv) the Adviser's voluntary commitment to cap overall operating expenses by waiving a portion of its advisory fees has enabled The Jamestown International Equity Fund to increase returns for shareholders of the Fund and maintain an overall expense ratio that is competitive with the average of similarly managed funds, despite the small size of the Fund. Given the current size of the Funds and their expected growth, the Independent Trustees did not believe that at the present time it would be relevant to consider the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow, and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. The Independent Trustees also considered the "fallout" benefits to, and the profitability of, the Adviser with respect to the Funds, but given the amounts involved viewed these as secondary factors in connection with the evaluation of the reasonableness of the advisory fees paid by the Funds. No single factor was considered in isolation or to be determinative to the decision of the Trustees to approve continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreement. Rather the Trustees concluded, in light of a weighing and balancing of all factors considered, that it was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to continue its Investment Advisory Agreement (and, with respect to the The Jamestown International Equity Fund, the Sub-Advisory Agreement) without modification to its terms, including the fees charged for services thereunder. 59 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.

Witt, III ================================================================================ ================================================================================ THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS No-Load Mutual Funds Annual Report March 31, 2008 ================================================================================ T. Leavell & Associates, Inc. ----------------------------- INVESTMENT ADVISER ----------------------------- Founded 1979 ================================================================================ The Government Street Equity Fund The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund ================================================================================ LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT MAY 27, 2008 ================================================================================ Dear Fellow Shareholders: We are enclosing for your review the audited Annual Report of The Government Street Funds for the year ended March 31, 2008. THE GOVERNMENT STREET EQUITY FUND - --------------------------------- The Government Street Equity Fund had a negative return of -3.51% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. By comparison, the S&P 500 Index and the Morningstar Large Blend Equity category were down -5.08% and -5.27%, respectively. While the good relative performance is welcomed in the short run, we are never satisfied with less than positive absolute returns. The stock market, as proxied by the S&P 500 Index, took a real downward turn beginning in October, 2007. During this six month period, the last half of the fiscal year, the S&P 500 was down -12.46%. This result was primarily attributable to the total disarray in credit markets caused by growing defaults in mortgage securities, structured investments and auction rate securities. Additionally, continued increases in the cost of oil and consequently gas pump prices began to negatively impact the largest part of our economy, as represented by the consumer. As the fiscal year drew to a close, all the maladies previously listed seemed to reach a climatic level. Throw in a highly competitive and controversial Presidential primary, the contentious Iraq war, Presidential and Congressional public confidence levels at historic lows, new records for our national debt and continuing hedge fund abuses, all one could do is wonder if the oft predicted recession/slowdown is upon us. When viewed in the context of the economic scenario stated, the returns of The Government Street Equity Fund and the stock market in general were not too bad. Hopefully, the remainder of calendar 2008 will yield a positive framework for equities, which has usually been the case during the period leading up to a Presidential election. The 10 largest holdings in the Fund at March 31, 2008 are: iShares MSCI EAFE Index Fund 5.5% Bank of America Corporation 3.5% Procter and Gamble Company (The) 2.9% U.S. Bancorp 2.7% Vanguard FTSE All-World Ex-US Index ETF 2.7% Hewlett-Packard Company 2.5% Philip Morris International, Inc. 2.5% Chevron Corporation 2.4% Emerson Electric Company 2.3% Caterpillar, Inc. 2.3% As might be expected, the performance of securities within the portfolio's energy sector were superior during the fiscal year with positive returns of 29.24% and 25.67% for the growth and value groups, respectively. The Fund's energy holdings consisted of British Petroleum, Exxon-Mobil, TransOcean, Inc., XTO Energy, Apache Corp., Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Spectra Energy and Valero Energy. 1 Equally expected, the portfolio's securities in the Financial sector turned in the worst performance for the fiscal year. The portfolio's growth and value Financial securities were down -20.01% and -13.31%, respectively. The Fund's financial holdings consisted of American Express, Bank of America Corp., Aegon (ARS), AFLAC, Inc., Goldman Sachs Group, Charles Schwab and U.S. Bancorp. Note: The investment performances listed for economic sectors in the two preceding paragraphs are extracted from an in-house independent internal rate of return computation by the Advent Axys portfolio accounting system. The calculations are for gross investment returns of the total economic sectors. Total investment returns are for the fiscal year April 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008. As 2008 unfolds, we anticipate continued slowing of the overall economy as the aforementioned maladies play out. We do not see many of the dislocations being temporary, but rather indicative of a restructuring of the importance of certain areas of our economy. It is believed that the new supply-demand scenario for energy will extend far into the future. Shifts may well occur within the category, but rapid development internationally will keep the pressures on demand. We find this upward pressure to be expected throughout the commodity related economic sectors. Again, international development is the primary determinant of the emphasis. The Consumer and Financials sectors should continue to be under pressure. Finance will be adversely affected by the continued attempt to correct the abusive and greedy excesses that permeate the banking, investment banking and brokerage industries. The consumer will be continually confronted with decisions on consumption of discretionary goods and services versus the needs for economical transportation and basic necessities. The Government Street Equity Fund continues to maintain wide diversification across all economic sectors. We continue to make individual security selections that we believe are positioned to perform well for investors. Even in difficult times, there are companies within each economic sector that turn in superior results. Additionally, we are increasingly convinced that a good equity portfolio will contain both direct and indirect international exposure. Direct investment is self explanatory and demonstrated through holdings in international exchange traded funds and American Depositary Receipts of individual stocks. Indirect investment is through domestic companies such as Caterpillar, General Electric, etc. which have substantial international exposure. As stated in a previous annual letter, we anticipate reaching approximately 20% participation in international investments with ongoing investments. In summary, we believe your Fund is positioned for the future with a widely diversified portfolio of high quality investments. We believe that better relative performance of the past year is indicative of the benefits of this diversification. It is our belief that a portfolio that is managed with less risk will yield higher compounded returns both absolutely and relatively. 2 As of March 31, 2008, the Fund's net assets were $67,266,882; net t 6 0 asset value per share was $44.76; and the ratio of expenses to net average assets was 0.84%. Portfolio turnover rate was 12%. Income dividends of $.57 per share were distributed during the year. THE GOVERNMENT STREET MID-CAP FUND - ---------------------------------- The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund completed its fourth full fiscal year on March 31, 2008. The Fund produced a one year total return of -3.99%, compared to the benchmark S&P MidCap 400 Index return of -6.97%. Of the ten sectors in the S&P MidCap 400, only three had positive performance over the past year - Energy, Materials and Industrials. The poorest performing sectors were Telecom, Consumer Discretionary and Financials. The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund benefited from slight underweightings in Consumer Discretionary and Financials. Some of the strongest stocks in the Fund over the past year were Cree, Inc. (+69%), FMC Technologies (+68%), Gamestop Corp. (+61%) and Jacobs Engineering Group (+59%). The outperformance of the Fund over the past year is attributable to timely stock selection, as well as beneficial sector exposure compared to the S&P MidCap 400. The longer term performance was also good as the Fund has produced a three-year annualized return of 6.60%, compared to the S&P 400 return of 7.06% and the S&P 500 return of 5.85%. Some of the top performers in the Fund over the past three years were Steel Dynamics (+338%), FMC Technologies (+234%), Gilead Sciences (+199%) and Jacobs Engineering Group (+191%). Over the past twelve months, growth stocks have outperformed value stocks by a significant margin, although longer time periods of five and ten years still show value stocks with an edge. The outperformance that growth stocks enjoyed over most of 2007 reversed in the first quarter of 2008. Historically, growth stocks tend to do better in the latter stages of an expansion and in the early part of a recession while value stocks typically outperform late in a recession and early in an expansionary phase. The long-term performance edge that mid-cap stocks have had over large-cap stocks was put on hold over the last twelve months ended March 31, 2008 as the S&P 500 returned -5.08% compared to a -6.97% return for the S&P MidCap 400. The long-term performance advantage remains fairly dramatic in favor of mid-cap stocks, as illustrated by the ten year annualized return of the S&P 400 as of March 31, 2008 of 9.02%, which significantly outpaced the S&P 500 return of 3.50%. Large cap stocks typically outperform in bear markets and current valuations make large cap stocks more attractive in our opinion than mid- and small-cap stocks. As a result, we may see continued outperformance of large-cap stocks. The current consensus on the economy is that we are in a recession. If that is not the case, at a minimum the economic growth rate has significantly slowed. There are several factors contributing to the economic uncertainty including weakness in the housing market, record oil and commodity prices, continuing depreciation of the dollar and increasing unemployment. These factors put considerable pressure on our economy and make it difficult to determine a timeframe for the recovery. The Federal 3 Reserve Board has been aggressive in cutting interest rates as the economy has slowed and there is not much room left for further cuts. Rates should stay near current levels until the economy starts to gain some traction or inflation picks up, in which case the Fed will have to raise rates in an attempt to slow rising prices. While the majority of reports on the market and economy point out the current challenges, there are a few positives that could lead to improved markets in the future. There are near record levels of cash in money market funds that could move into the stock market once investors regain confidence in the economy. Private equity funds have raised huge sums of cash over the past few years and that cash combined with the typical leverage that they employ gives these firms a lot of buying power. Foreign flows into U.S. investments have continued to remain strong and several developing nations have excess reserves that are to be invested for above government debt returns. So while we do have a number of economic challenges to work through, there is also a lot of available capital to flow into the market when investors get some clarity on the economy. As of March 31, 2008, the net assets of The Government Street Mid Cap Fund were $31,423,692 and the net asset value per share was $12.28. The turnover rate for the previous twelve months was 11% and the total number of holdings is 150. The net expense ratio for the Fund is 1.10%. THE ALABAMA TAX FREE BOND FUND - ------------------------------ Investors in fixed income securities have experienced quite a tumultuous time during the last twelve months. The sub prime mortgage crisis and the faltering housing market had widespread implications for fixed income markets. Municipal bond insurance companies came under pressure as their liabilities were scrutinized for potential losses. Municipal bond investors came to the realization that the underlying credit of the issuing municipality, rather than the AAA rating of the insurance company, would be critical in the valuation of municipal securities. As manager to The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund, we have always focused on the creditworthiness of the issuer over and above the rating provided by the rating agencies. As a result, securities held in the Fund saw little negative pricing impact from this market adjustment. As the fallout from the sub prime crisis spread across the credit markets, the Federal Reserve Board initiated a series of interest rate cuts. The Federal Funds target rate was slashed a total of 300 basis points, from 5.25% on March 31, 2007 to 2.25% on March 31, 2008. As a result, the yield curve steepened dramatically over the course of the last twelve months to the point that the spread between a two-year municipal bond and a 10-year municipal bond increased from 15 basis points to 150 basis points. This positive spread provides some incentive for portfolio managers to extend maturities within their portfolios. It should also be noted that higher long-term interest rates are partially attributable to increasing inflationary expectations as a result of the surge in commodity prices. For the twelve months ended March 31, 2008, the Fund had a return of 4.66%, as compared to a return of 5.59% for the Lehman 7-year Municipal Bond Index, 6.31% for the Lehman 3-year Municipal Bond Index and 2.52% for the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Fund Index. The Alabama Tax Free 4 Bond Fund has consistently maintained a shorter average maturity and higher rated securities, on average, than those comprising the comparable indices. As of March 31, 2008, the Fund held no securities rated lower than AA, and two-thirds of the portfolio was rated AAA. The average maturity of the Fund at fiscal year-end was 4.1 years, compared to 4.7 years a year ago. We would be remiss in not mentioning a recent United States Supreme Court ruling which had implications for single state municipal bond funds. The Court's decision reversed a Kentucky lower court ruling and affirmed the state's authority to exempt from state taxes interest on in-state municipal bonds for residents, while permitting the taxation of interest received from out-of-state municipal bonds. The Court noted the adverse impact on single state funds if the Kentucky ruling were allowed to stand and suggested that the disappearance of such funds would adversely impact both investors and municipal issuers and radically change the way such issuers finance long-term municipal projects. Investors in The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund should expect the manager to remain committed to achieving the primary objectives of preserving principal value while generating income which is exempt form both Federal and Alabama state income taxes. The Fund's duration and average maturity will be adjusted in a manner consistent with these objectives, and we expect the quality of holdings in the portfolio will be maintained at levels consistently above average. The net assets of the Fund as of March 31, 2008 were $25,426,397 and the net asset value per share was $10.50. The ratio of net investment income to average net assets during the fiscal year was 3.46%. Portfolio turnover rate was 6%. Thank you for your continued confidence in The Government Street Funds.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. 29 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008 ================================================================================ 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Government Street Equity Fund, The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund and The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund (the "Funds") are each a no-load series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust (the "Trust"). The Trust, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on July 18, 1988. The Government Street Equity Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation through the compounding of dividends and capital gains, both realized and unrealized, by investing in common stocks. The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation by investing in common stocks of mid-cap companies. The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund's investment objectives are to provide current income exempt from federal income taxes and from the personal income taxes of Alabama and to preserve capital. The following is a summary of the Funds' significant accounting policies: Securities valuation -- The Funds' portfolio securities are valued as of the close of business of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Securities traded on a national stock exchange are valued based upon the closing price on the principal exchange where the security is traded. Securities which are quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities which are traded over-the-counter are valued at the last sales price, if available, otherwise, at the last quoted bid price. It is expected that fixed income securities will ordinarily be traded in the over-the-counter market, and common stocks will ordinarily be traded on a national securities exchange, but may also be traded in the over-the-counter market. Short-term instruments (those with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. When market quotations are not readily available, securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. The prices provided by the pricing service are determined with consideration given to institutional bid and last sale prices and take into account securities prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings, institutional trading in similar groups of securities and developments related to specific securities. If a pricing service cannot provide a valuation, securities will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods consistent with those determined by the Board of Trustees. Such methods of fair valuation may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security, purchase price of security, 30 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ subsequent private transactions in the security or related securities, or a combination of these and other factors. Share valuation -- The net asset value per share of each Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of each Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. The offering price and redemption price per share of each Fund is equal to the net asset value per share. Investment income -- Interest income is accrued as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Discounts and premiums on fixed-income securities purchased are amortized using the interest method. Repurchase agreements -- The Funds may enter into joint repurchase agreements with other funds within the Trust. The joint repurchase agreement, which is collateralized by U.S. Government obligations, is valued at cost which, together with accrued interest, approximates market value. At the time the Funds enter into the joint repurchase agreement, the Funds take possession of the underlying securities and the seller agrees that the value of the underlying securities, including accrued interest, will at all times be equal to or exceed the face amount of the repurchase agreement. In addition, each Fund actively monitors and seeks additional collateral, as needed. Distributions to shareholders -- Dividends arising from net investment income are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders of The Government Street Equity Fund; declared and paid annually to shareholders of The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund; and declared daily and paid monthly to shareholders of The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund. Net realized short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed throughout the year and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at least once each year. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. Certain Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemptions of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes. The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007 are as follows:
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YEARS ORDINARY EXEMPT-INTEREST LONG-TERM RETURN OF TOTAL ENDED INCOME DIVIDENDS GAINS CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Government Street 03/31/08 $ 1,059,790 $ -- $ 1,866,409 $ 265,270 $ 3,191,469 Equity Fund 03/31/07 $ 1,084,650 $ -- $ 12,812,704 $ -- $ 13,897,354 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Government Street 03/31/08 $ 150,519 $ -- $ 730,879 $ -- $ 881,398 Mid-Cap Fund 03/31/07 $ 154,752 $ -- $ 2,609,394 $ -- $ 2,764,146 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alabama Tax Free 03/31/08 $ -- $ 869,547 $ 15,917 $ -- $ 885,464 Bond Fund 03/31/07 $ -- $ 876,155 $ -- $ -- $ 876,155 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ Security transactions -- Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis. Common expenses -- Common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the funds of the Trust based on relative net assets of each fund or the nature of the services performed and the relative applicability to each fund. Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Federal income tax -- It is each Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a Fund so qualifies, and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, the Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made. In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also each Fund's intention to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years. The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of March 31, 2008: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOVERNMENT GOVERNMENT ALABAMA STREET STREET TAX FREE EQUITY MID-CAP BOND FUND FUND FUND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cost of portfolio investments .. $ 38,991,733 $ 25,898,875 $ 25,152,858 ============ ============ ============ Gross unrealized appreciation .. $ 29,385,177 $ 7,769,841 $ 577,628 Gross unrealized depreciation ..

(46,884) (7,120) (27,608) ------------ ------------ ------------ Total distributable earnings ... $ 28,259,451 $ 6,016,487 $ 547,531 ============ ============ ============ - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 32 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ The difference between the federal income tax cost of portfolio investments and the financial statement cost for The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund is due to certain timing differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These "book/tax" differences are temporary in nature and are primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and/or differing methods in the amortization of discounts and premiums on fixed income securities. During the year ended March 31, 2008, The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund utilized capital loss carryforwards of $519 to offset current year realized gains. During the year ended March 31, 2008, The Government Street Equity Fund and The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund realized $10,223,336 and $369,183, respectively, of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions (redemptions in which shareholders who redeemed Fund shares received securities held by the Fund rather than cash). The Funds recognize a gain on in-kind redemptions to the extent that the value of the distributed securities on the date of redemption exceeds the cost of those securities. Such gains are not taxable to the Funds and are not required to be distributed to shareholders. The Funds have reclassified these amounts against paid-in capital. These reclassifications are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such reclassifications, the result of permanent differences between the financial statement and income tax reporting requirements, had no effect on each Fund's net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended March 31, 2008, The Government Street Equity Fund reclassified return of capital distributions of $265,270 against paid-in capital on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For the year ended March 31, 2008, The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund reclassified $776 of undistributed net investment income against accumulated net realized losses on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These reclassifications are due to permanent differences in the recognition of capital gains or losses under income tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. For The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund the differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of certain debt obligations. Such reclassifications had no effect on each Fund's net assets or net asset value per share. On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48") "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not 33 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Each Fund adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on September 30, 2007. Management analyzed the Funds' tax positions taken on Federal income tax returns for all open tax years (tax years ended March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2008) for purposes of implementing FIN 48 and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statments. 2. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS During the year ended March 31, 2008, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities, other than short-term investments and U.S. government securities, amounted to $9,215,266 and $27,321,075, respectively, for The Government Street Equity Fund; $3,514,522 and $4,200,803, respectively, for The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund; and $1,552,162 and $2,325,000, respectively, for The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund. 3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT The Funds' investments are managed by T. Leavell & Associates, Inc. (the "Adviser") under the terms of an Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, The Government Street Equity Fund pays the Adviser a fee, which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of .60% of its average daily net assets up to $100 million and .50% of such assets in excess of $100 million. The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund pays the Adviser a fee at an annual rate of .75% of its average daily net assets. The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund pays the Adviser a fee at an annual rate of .35% of its average daily net assets up to $100 million and .25% of such assets in excess of $100 million. For the year ended March 31, 2008, the Adviser voluntarily undertook to limit the total operating expenses of The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund and The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund to 1.10% and .65%, respectively, of each Fund's average daily net assets. Accordingly, the Adviser voluntarily waived $7,531 and $31,883, respectively, of its investment advisory fees from The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund and The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund during the year ended March 31, 2008. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the Adviser. MUTUAL FUND SERVICES AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Mutual Fund Services Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC ("Ultimus"), Ultimus provides administrative, pricing, accounting, dividend disbursing, shareholder servicing and transfer agent services for the Funds. For these services, Ultimus receives a monthly fee from The Government Street Equity Fund, The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund and The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund at an annual rate of .15% of each Fund's average daily net assets up to $25 34 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ million; .125% of the next $25 million of such assets; and .10% of such net assets in excess of $50 million. Additionally, The Government Street Equity Fund, The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund and the Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund are subject to a minimum monthly fee of $4,000, $4,000 and $3,500, respectively. In addition, each Fund pays out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, supplies and costs of pricing the Funds' portfolio securities. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of Ultimus, or of Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC (the "Distributor"), the principal underwriter of each Fund's shares and an affiliate of Ultimus. The Distributor is compensated by the Adviser (not the Funds) for acting as principal underwriter. COMPLIANCE CONSULTING AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Compliance Consulting Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus, Ultimus provides an individual to serve as the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer and to administer the Funds' compliance policies and procedures. For these services, the Funds pay Ultimus an annual base fee of $18,600 plus an asset-based fee equal to 0.01% per annum on the Funds' aggregate net assets in excess of $100 million. 4. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS The Funds indemnify the Trust's officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. 5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of March 31, 2008, the Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements. However, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements reported on the statement of changes in net assets for a fiscal period. 35 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ================================================================================ The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of The Government Street Equity Fund, The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund, and The Alabama Tax-Free Bond Fund of the Williamsburg Investment Trust We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of The Government Street Equity Fund, The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund, and The Alabama Tax-Free Bond Fund (the "Funds") (each a series of the Williamsburg Investment Trust), as of March 31, 2008, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Government Street Equity Fund, The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund, and The Alabama Tax-Free Bond Fund at March 31, 2008, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Cincinnati, Ohio May 16, 2008 36 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS ABOUT YOUR FUNDS' EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. Operating expenses, which are deducted from each Fund's gross income, directly reduce the investment returns of the Funds. A mutual fund's ongoing costs are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period (October 1, 2007) shown and held for the entire period (March 31, 2008). The table below illustrates each Fund's costs in two ways: ACTUAL FUND RETURN - This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from each Fund's actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount of operating expenses that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Funds. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for the Funds under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period." HYPOTHETICAL 5% RETURN - This section is intended to help you compare the Funds' costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that each Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses during the period shown, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the returns used are not the Funds' actual returns, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess each Fund's costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Note that expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only. The Funds do not charge transaction fees, such as purchase or redemption fees, nor do they carry a "sales load." The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions. 37 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS ABOUT YOUR FUNDS' EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ More information about the Funds' expenses, including historical expense ratios, can be found in this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the Funds' prospectus.

Below is a discussion of the factors considered by the Board of Trustees along with the conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the Board's approvals. In selecting the Adviser and approving the most recent annual continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The principal areas of review by the Trustees were the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the reasonableness of the fees charged for those services. These matters were considered by the Independent Trustees consulting with experienced counsel for the Independent Trustees, who is independent of the Adviser. The Trustees' evaluation of the quality of the Adviser's services took into account their knowledge and experience gained through meetings with and reports of the Adviser's senior management over the course of the preceding year. Both short-term and long-term investment performance of the Funds was considered. Each Fund's performance was compared to its performance benchmark and to that of competitive funds with similar investment objectives. The Trustees also considered the scope and quality of the in-house capabilities of the Adviser and other resources dedicated to performing services for the Funds. The quality of administrative and other services, including the Adviser's role in coordinating the activities of the Funds' other service providers, were considered in light of the Funds' compliance with investment policies and applicable laws and regulations and of related reports by management and the Funds' independent public accountants in periodic meetings with the Trust's Audit Committee. The Trustees also considered the business reputation of the Adviser, the qualifications of its key investment and compliance personnel, and its financial resources. In reviewing the fees payable under the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees compared the advisory fees and overall expense levels of each Fund with those of competitive funds with similar investment objectives. The Trustees considered information provided by the Adviser concerning the Adviser's profitability with respect to each Fund, including the assumptions and methodology used in preparing the profitability information, in light of applicable case law relating to advisory fees. For these purposes, the Trustees took into account not only the fees paid by the Funds, but also so-called "fallout" benefits to the Adviser. The Trustees also considered the 43 THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS DISCLOSURE REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) ================================================================================ Adviser's representations that all of the Funds' portfolio trades were executed based on the best price and execution available, and that the Adviser does not participate in any soft dollar or directed brokerage arrangements. The Trustees further considered that neither the Funds nor the Adviser participate in any revenue sharing arrangements on behalf of the Funds. In evaluating the Funds' advisory fees, the Trustees took into account the complexity and quality of the investment management of the Funds. Based upon their review of this information, the Independent Trustees concluded that: (i) based on the long-term performance of each Fund as compared to similarly managed funds and the other services provided under the Investment Advisory Agreements, they believe that the Adviser has provided quality services to the Funds; (ii) the investment advisory fees payable to the Adviser by each Fund are competitive with similarly managed funds, and they believe the fees to be reasonable given the quality of services provided by the Adviser; (iii) the total operating expense ratio of each Fund is less than the average expense ratio for comparably managed funds, according to statistics derived from Morningstar, Inc.; and (iv) the Adviser's voluntary commitment to cap overall operating expenses of The Government Street Mid-Cap Fund and The Alabama Tax Free Bond Fund through advisory fee waivers has enabled those Funds to further increase returns for shareholders. Given the current size of the Funds and their expected growth, the Independent Trustees did not believe that at the present time it would be relevant to consider the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow, and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. The Independent Trustees also considered the "fallout" benefits to, and the profitability of, the Adviser with respect to the Funds, but given the amounts involved viewed these as secondary factors in connection with the evaluation of the reasonableness of the advisory fees paid by the Funds. No single factor was considered in isolation or to be determinative to the decision of the Trustees to approve continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreements. Rather the Trustees concluded, in light of a weighing and balancing of all factors considered, that it was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to continue its Investment Advisory Agreement without modification to its terms, including the fees charged for services thereunder. 44 This page intentionally left blank. ================================================================================ THE GOVERNMENT STREET FUNDS ============================================= No Load Mutual Funds INVESTMENT ADVISER T.

EX-99.CODE ETH 2 ex99codeeth.txt CODE OF ETHICS WILLIAMSBURG INVESTMENT TRUST CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS I. COVERED OFFICERS/PURPOSE OF THE CODE The code of ethics (this "Code") for Williamsburg Investment Trust (the "Company") applies to the Company's Principal Executive Officer(s), Principal Financial Officer(s) and Principal Accounting Officer(s) (the "Covered Officers" each of whom are set forth in Exhibit A) for the purpose of promoting: o honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; o full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a registrant files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in other public communications made by the Company; o compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations; o the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and o accountability for adherence to the Code. Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest. II. COVERED OFFICERS SHOULD HANDLE ETHICALLY ACTUAL AND APPARENT CONFLICTS OF INTEREST OVERVIEW. A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private interest interferes with the interests of, or his service to, the Company. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of his family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his position with the Company. Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Covered Officers and the Company and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act") and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 ("Investment Advisers Act"). For example, Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Company because of their status as "affiliated persons" of the Company. The Company's and the investment adviser's compliance programs and procedures are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures, and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code. Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between the Company and the investment adviser/administrator of which the Covered Officers are also officers or employees. As a result, this Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally for the Company or for the adviser/administrator, or for both), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the adviser/administrator and the Company. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between the Company and the adviser/administrator and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Company. Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act, such activities will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Company's Board of Trustees ("Board") that the Covered Officers may also be officers or employees of one or more investment companies covered by other codes. Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions in the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act. The following list provides examples of conflicts of interest under the Code, but Covered Officers should keep in mind that these examples are not exhaustive. The overarching principle is that the personal interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed improperly before the interest of the Company. Each Covered Officer must: o not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by the Company whereby the Covered Officer would benefit personally to the detriment of the Company; o not cause the Company to take action, or fail to take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than the benefit of the Company; o not use material non-public knowledge of portfolio transactions made or contemplated for the Company to trade personally or cause others to trade personally in contemplation of the market effect of such transactions; o report at least annually any affiliations or other relationships related to conflicts of interest that the Company's Trustees and Officers Questionnaire covers. There are some conflict of interest situations that should always be discussed with Counsel for the Company if material. Examples of these include: o service as a director on the board of any public company; o the receipt of any non-nominal gifts; -2- o the receipt of any entertainment from any company with which the Company has current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment is business-related, reasonable in cost, appropriate as to time and place, and not so frequent as to raise any questions of impropriety; o any ownership interest in, or any consulting or employment relationship with, any of the Company's service providers, other than its investment adviser, principal underwriter, administrator or any affiliated person thereof; o a direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, transaction charges or spreads paid by the Company for effecting portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest arising from the Covered Officer's employment, such as compensation or equity ownership. III. DISCLOSURE AND COMPLIANCE o each Covered Officer should familiarize himself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Company; o each Covered Officer should not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether within or outside the Company, including to the Company's directors and auditors, and to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations; o each Covered Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the Company and the adviser/administrator with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Company files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company; and o it is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations. IV. REPORTING AND ACCOUNTABILITY Each Covered Officer must: o upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming a Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Board that he has received, read, and understands the Code; o annually thereafter affirm to the Board that he has complied with the requirements of the Code; o not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee of the Company or their affiliated persons for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith; and -3- o notify Counsel for the Company promptly if he knows of any violation of this Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code. Counsel for the Company is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. However, any approvals or waivers sought by a Covered Officer will be considered by the Ethics Committee (the "Committee"). The Company will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing this Code: o Counsel for the Company will take all appropriate action to investigate any potential violations reported to him; o if, after such investigation, Counsel believes that no violation has occurred, Counsel is not required to take any further action; o any matter that Counsel believes is a violation will be reported to the Committee; o if the Committee concurs that a violation has occurred, it will inform and make a recommendation to the Board, which will consider appropriate action, which may include review of, and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; notification to appropriate personnel of the investment adviser/administrator or its board; or a recommendation to dismiss the Covered Officer; o the Board will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate; and o any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required, be disclosed as provided by SEC rules. V. OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES This Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Company for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other policies or procedures of the Company, the Company's adviser, principal underwriter, or other service providers govern or purport to govern the behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this Code, they are superseded by this Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of this Code. The Company's and its investment adviser's and principal underwriter's codes of ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act are separate requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others, and are not part of this Code. -4- VI. AMENDMENTS Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibit A, must be approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a majority of independent trustees. VII. CONFIDENTIALITY All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the Board and Counsel for the Company. VIII. INTERNAL USE The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Company and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of the Company, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.
