Fincastle and the industrial corridors of the James River valley anchor this early twentieth-century survey of Botetourt and Alleghany Counties. The landscape is defined by the heavy extraction and processing industries of the era, evidenced by the Richpatch Mine, Peanut Mine, and the weathered remains of ironworks like the Roaring Run Furnace and Salisbury Furnace. These sites, along with the settlement at Lignite, suggest a period where the region's mineral wealth dictated its development.
