1997 Map of Kingwood

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Cheat River carves a deep valley through the center of this Preston County landscape, separating the highland ridges of the Briery Mountains from the settlement concentrations to the west. This 1997 survey shows the county seat of Kingwood as a hub of local activity, featuring a concentrated urban boundary with its Kingwood Cemetery, a large hospital, and various public landmarks. The topography is defined by numerous drainage runs, including Heather Run and Morgan Run, which create a complex network of hollows and ridges characteristic of West Virginia's coal and timber country.
