About this map

Fort Duffield overlooks the confluence of the Ohio River and Salt River, marking a strategic vantage point in a landscape defined by the military infrastructure of Fort Knox. This area showcases a complex network of internal military roads like Carbine Range Rd and 484th Engineer Rd, alongside residential enclaves such as Rose Terrace, Gaffey Heights, and Van Voorhis Manor. The presence of Godman Army Airfield highlights the site's role as a major aviation and training hub.

Beyond the base, the terrain transitions into the high ridges and deep hollows characteristic of the region, including McClelland Ridge and Hooker Mtn. Local history is preserved in numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Montgomery Cem, Muth Cem, and Saint Patricks Cem. The Louisville & Nashville Tpke serves as a reminder of the historical transportation corridors that predated the modern highway system, connecting the riverfront at West Point to the growing community of Radcliff.
