The Cahaba River and its tributary, the Little Cahaba River, anchor this modern topography of the Bibb and Shelby County line. This area reflects a long history of industrial activity, particularly centered around Brierfield and Aldrich. The presence of labels like Furnace Branch points to the region's legacy of iron production, which once thrived along these waterways. In the northeastern corner, the University of Montevallo Lake and College Lake mark the edges of the local academic landscape. Numerous burial sites, including Cahaba Valley Baptist Church Cem, Carlton Hill Cem, and Six Mile Cem, are scattered throughout the hills and valleys of Pea Ridge, offering valuable data points for genealogists tracking family settlements along the old Birmingham St and Old Selma Rd corridors.
