About this map

Laurel Hill dominates the terrain of this Somerset County landscape, where the high ridges of Forbes State Forest and State Game Lands No 111 give way to the deep valleys of Middle Creek and Laurel Run. The area reflects a rural economy shaped by natural resources, marked by numerous strip mines and gravel pits interspersed with small agricultural settlements. In the late 1960s, the community of Kingwood served as a local hub near Kingwood Sch, while smaller hamlets like Scullton and Barronvale were connected by winding roads that crossed the creeks via several covered bridges. Spiritual and social life centered on landmarks such as Wesley Chapel and the Old Bethel Ch. Recreational features like Lake Pyle, Clairton Lake, and the Kings Mtn Country Club highlight the transition toward seasonal and outdoor use of the forested uplands.
