2016 Map of Clay City

About this map

Clay City serves as the focal point for this landscape along the border of Clay and Owen counties. The town is oriented around a grid of streets including Main St and Lankford St, with Goshorn Memorial Park situated at its northwestern edge. The Eel River and its major tributary system, including Conneley Ditch and Shelkett Ditch, define the drainage patterns of this agricultural region. Evidence of the area's pioneer history is preserved in a high density of rural burial grounds, such as Zenor Cem and Liechty Cem. Small crossroad communities like Denmark and Barrick Corner remain visible, linked by an extensive network of county roads. Of particular interest is the Feederdam Bridge, a significant engineering landmark located where the river intersects with E Towpath Rd and W Towpath Rd, reflecting the era of water-driven infrastructure and early transit routes through the river bottomlands.
