1950 Map of Goode

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Poplar Forest sits south of the Norfolk and Western rail line, anchoring a mid-century landscape where Virginia’s Piedmont begins its ascent toward the Blue Ridge. This 1950 field-checked survey captures a dense network of rural infrastructure, including dozens of country churches and schools such as Altha Grove Ch and New London Academy. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks like No Business Mountain and Fleming Mountain, which overlook the winding course of the Big Otter River. The southern edge of the map shows the transition from Bedford into Campbell County, centered around the settlement of New London. This map is particularly notable for its documentation of historical estates and the intersection of the Southern and Norfolk and Western railroads, providing a clear record of the area's mid-century transportation and community hubs.
