2011 Map of Bellegrove

About this map

Sideling Hill Creek carves a deep path through the ridges of western Maryland and West Virginia, meeting the Potomac River at a point marked by the Sideling Hill Creek Aqueduct. This corridor demonstrates the complex intersection of early transport and rugged topography, featuring the Indigo Tunnel and the path of the Western Maryland Rail Trl winding along the riverbank. Small communities like Bellegrove, Pearre, and Woodmont serve as quiet anchors in a landscape defined by significant elevation changes, from High Germany Hill to the steep ravines of Swain Hollow. The presence of Saint Pauls Cemetery and Mount Olivet Cemetery provides specific points of interest for those tracing local lineage near settlements like Harvey and Mann, while the river's edge is dotted with recreational landmarks such as Turkey Foot Bend and Indigo Neck Campground.
