2016 Map of Arrington

About this map

The Tye River drainage basin defines this portion of Nelson County, where the Piedmont begins its transition toward the Blue Ridge. The landscape is characterized by a series of prominent peaks and ridges, including Cabell Mtn, Bryant Mtn, and Crits Mtn, which overlook a network of smaller settlements and agricultural crossroads. Local commerce and transit are anchored by communities such as Arrington, Colleen, and Roseland, with Hendersons Store serving as a distinct northern landmark. The area's topography is punctuated by several small airfields, including Flatwoods Airport, Tye River Airport, and Starr Airport, reflecting the region's reliance on localized aviation. Genealogical and local history points of interest include Woodland Cem and White Rock Cem, alongside namesake locations like Roses Mill and Diggs Mtn, which preserve the family names of the early residents of these valley corridors.
