About this map

Fairfield sits at the junction of Highgrove Rd and W Main St, serving as a central point for this section of Nelson County where the Spencer and Bullitt county lines meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Cox Creek and its many tributaries, including Lasley Run and Kimbly Run, which carve through the terrain. To the north, the Salt River and Simpson Creek mark the drainage patterns of the upper reaches of the map near Highgrove.

Genealogists and local historians can locate family landmarks such as Saint Michaels Cem near the eastern edge of the survey and Montgomery Cem further west. The road network, including Old Louisville Rd and Deatsville Rd, illustrates the long-standing transport corridors connecting Coxs Creek to the surrounding rural landscape. These features collectively reflect a region where agriculture and family heritage remain deeply rooted in the physical geography of the Kentucky knobs.
