1965 Map of Delaplain

About this map

Eagle Creek and its many tributaries, including Griffith Br and Wolf Branch, carve through the northern Bluegrass landscape in this record of Scott County. The area shows a distinct shift from the traditional agricultural crossroads like Oxford and Biddle toward modern residential and transit infrastructure. The corridor along Interstate 75 features significant industrial and commercial development around Delaplain, including large-scale structures and Weighing Stations. Historic community centers are anchored by landmarks such as Mt Olive Ch and Dry Run Ch, while the Southern railroad line skirts the eastern edge near Rogers Gap. This map specifically highlights later 20th-century growth through purple-shaded revisions, showing the expansion of settlements like Mallard Point and Moon Lake Estates against the established rural grid of Gaines Road and Old Oxford Rd.
