2010 Map of Fairfield

About this map

Fairfield anchors this landscape in northern Nelson County, where the topography is defined by an intricate network of waterways draining toward the Salt River. The drainage pattern is particularly dense, with East Fork Cox Creek, Kimbly Run, and Plum Run carving the terrain into a series of ridges and valleys. This 2010 survey reflects a rural infrastructure built upon long-established family routes and regional connectors, including Irish Ridge Rd and Mobley Mill Rd. Local heritage is anchored at sites like Saint Michaels Cemetery and Montgomery Cemetery, which sit among the undulating hills. The proximity of Simpson Creek in the northeast and Samuels Creek in the southwest illustrates the significant role these small watercourses play in defining property boundaries and local orientation in this part of Kentucky.
