USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The Southern railroad corridor anchors the community of Gretna in Pittsylvania County, serving as the central axis for development in this part of the Virginia Piedmont. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage of the Stinking River and its various forks, including the North Fork Stinking River and Maggotty Creek. This 1965 survey, updated with late-1970s revisions, illustrates a rural economy transitioning from its industrial roots, as evidenced by Vadens Mill and the Gretna Rolling Mill.
