About this map

Haleyville anchors the northwestern corner of this Winston County landscape, where the Southern railroad line cuts south toward Delmar. The terrain is defined by the Divide between the Buttahatchee River and the Tennessee Valley, creating a complex network of ridges and hollows. Rural life in the mid-20th century is well-documented through a dense concentration of community centers such as Prospect Ch, Macedonia Ch, and Friendship Ch.

Industry and topography meet in the extensive network of service roads and resource extraction sites, including several Strip Mine locations and a Gravel Pit. Notable landmarks like the Boar Tush Lookout Tower stand near the edge of the William B Bankhead National Forest, while historical routes like Yankee Trace and Newburg Road provide a look at the area's established transportation patterns before late-century developments changed the local infrastructure.
