The Smith River corridor anchors this portion of Henry County, where the industrial and residential hub of Bassett and North Bassett developed alongside the Norfolk and Western railway. This late-1960s landscape, later revised in the 1970s, reveals a community structured around small churches and schools, such as the Hunter Sch and High Sch. Further north, the terrain transitions into the steep slopes of Skelt Mountain, where rural life is marked by numerous family burial grounds including Thornton Cem and Pearson Cem.
