About this map

The northern edge of Brandenburg and its surrounding residential extensions like Eastwood Hills anchor this Meade County landscape. The area transitions from the more densely settled northern corridor near Brandenburg Station into a patchwork of rural hamlets and agricultural lands to the south. Small, established communities like Ekron, Guston, and Hillgrove are linked by a network of local roads including Old State Rd and Brandenburg Rd, reflecting a settlement pattern centered on these historical crossroads.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved at Bethel United Methodist Church and the adjacent Bethel Cem, as well as the Cap Anderson Cem near the town center. The terrain is marked by subtle rises such as Heavens Hill and Cherry Hill, with the eastern portion of the map drained by the winding course of Doe Run. This 2019 survey documents the enduring layout of these central Kentucky townships at the border of Meade and Breckinridge counties.
