About this map

The town of Arley serves as the central hub in this survey of Winston County, Alabama, where the landscape is defined by the expansive, multi-fingered reaches of Lewis Smith Lake. The intricate shoreline created by the impoundment of water into valleys like Dismal Creek and Cutoff Branch has transformed former stream beds into deep-water inlets, significantly altering the local geography. This 2011 record documents the developed recreational and residential character of the lakefront at Wilson Bend and Arley Landing, supported by maritime infrastructure like Hueys Marina and the prominent Duncan Bridge.

Genealogists and local historians will find several family and community landmarks preserved here, including the Meek Cemetery, Arley Cemetery, Mount Hope Cemetery, and Kennedy Cemetery. Inland, the terrestrial character remains evident through features like the Meek Lookout Tower and the network of winding county roads such as Old Houston Rd and the Arley Byp, which navigate the complex topography above the waterline.
