Kingwood sits as the central hub of this Preston County landscape, where the Cheat River carves a deep path through the terrain. The river's influence is clear, having long served as a corridor for travel and industry, noted by the presence of Trowbridge Ferry and Fairfax Ferry. These river crossings, along with the settlement at Dunkard Bottom, point to the historical importance of the water for regional connectivity.
