2022 Map of Brosville

About this map

The Dan River carves a winding path across the state line between Virginia and North Carolina, defining the rural character of this borderland. The topography is shaped by a series of distinct peaks including Perkins Mtn, Soyar Mtn, and Judy Byrd Mtn, which overlook a network of small agricultural and residential settlements. The village of Brosville sits in the northwest, while Bachelors Hall and the edges of Danville occupy the northeastern corner near the Sandy River. Family history is deeply rooted in the landscape, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds such as the Scarce Gammon Cem, Moss Cem, and Soyar Cem. The transition from the hills of Pittsylvania County into the flatter terrain of Rockingham and Caswell Counties is marked by the presence of Mayfield and the banks of Wolf Island Creek to the south.
