1947 Map of Ben Hur

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The Powell River meanders sharply through the heart of this Lee County landscape, carving a deep valley between the prominent ridges of Poor Valley Ridge and Wallen Ridge. Central to the area's development is the Southern Railway corridor, which connects the settlement of Ben Hur to the surrounding coal and timber lands. The map illustrates a dense network of rural life, with family-named landmarks like Collier Mill and specialized infrastructure such as the Pennington Gap Water Works.
