2019 Map of Fairhope

About this map

Savage Mountain and the steep ridges of the Little Allegheny Mountain define the topography of this Somerset and Bedford County borderland. The landscape is carved by the winding course of Wills Creek and Brush Creek, which historically dictated the paths of transit and settlement. Small rural communities and industrial outposts like Glencoe, Fairhope, and Bittners Mill are scattered throughout the valleys, connected by a network of winding roads such as Bittner Mill Road and Glen Savage Road. Notable landmarks reflect the region's engineering and architectural heritage, including the Falls Cut Tunnel and the Fitchner Covered Bridge over Gladdens Run. The map provides a contemporary view of these established settlements, showing the persistence of crossroads like Comps Crossroads and Kennells Mill amidst the heavy mountain terrain.
