1942 Map of Leicester

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Leicester and the surrounding Buncombe County landscape are captured during a period of transition as traditional rural patterns met early automotive infrastructure. The Dixie Highway winds through the region, providing a primary artery for travel through the Appalachian foothills. The community structure is anchored by localized centers of education and faith, such as the Leicester Sch, Piney Grove Sch, and the distinctive Brick Ch.
