1972 Map of Brayton

About this map

McGill Ridge and the Walden Ridge plateau dominate this landscape in the early 1970s, where the dramatic descent of the Cumberland Escarpment meets the rural communities of Bledsoe County. Small settlements like Brayton and Smithtown are central to the upland life, connected by the Brayton-Hendon Community Center and local landmarks like Brayton Ch. The era is defined by extractive industry, evidenced by numerous strip mines dotting the ridges above Pitts Gap.
