2013 Map of Drakesboro

About this map

Drakesboro serves as the focal point of this Muhlenberg County landscape, where a dense network of local streets like Mine St, Railroad St, and City Dump Rd hint at the area's industrial character. The map traces a corridor of settlements including Bevier, Nonnell, and Browder, following the drainage of Plum Cr and Pond Cr. To the south, the terrain becomes more varied around Boggess Hollow and the waters of Kirkwood Lake near Wells. This survey reveals the transition from concentrated town centers to the smaller rural hamlets of Beech Creek and Beechmont, providing a detailed view of the road systems and watercourses that have historically defined these Kentucky coalfield communities.
