Kings Mountain National Military Park straddles the border of the Carolinas, preserving the site of a pivotal Revolutionary War engagement within a landscape defined by the prominent peaks of Kings Mountain. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like The Pinnacle and Crowders Mountain, which dominate the eastern skyline near Mountain View. This survey details the industrial and municipal development of the region, including the Kings Mountain Mica Company Lake and the complex of city reservoirs such as Kings Mountain City Lake Number Two. To the south, the settlement of Love Valley and the distinct peak of Henry Knob sit near the state line, while the Norfolk Southern rail line cuts through the northern corridor, connecting the residential and commercial centers of Kings Mountain and Gastonia. Local genealogy is well-served by the inclusion of several burying grounds, including Pisgah Cem and Mountain Rest Cem.
