1972 Map of Clanton West

About this map

The Chilton County seat of Clanton serves as the focal point for this early 1970s survey, showing a landscape defined by the intersection of the Louisville and Nashville railroad and a network of rural watercourses. The town's grid expands westward, with civil landmarks such as the Courthouse, City Hall, and Po anchoring the center, while the County Vocational Technical Sch and a Drive-in Theater reflect the era's mid-century development. Moving away from the municipal core, the terrain is marked by numerous family and community landmarks, including the Old Liberty Hill Cem and Morning Star Ch. The drainage patterns of Mulberry Creek and its many branches, like Benson Cr and Sandy Branch, illustrate the area's transition from agricultural homesteads to more modern infrastructure, including a prominent Pipeline and a local Drag Strip.
