About this map

The Maury River and its numerous tributaries dominate this Rockbridge County landscape, carving through the gap at Goshen Pass and winding toward the industrial hubs of Lexington and Buena Vista. This mid-century revision captures the region's transition from a rural milling economy to a more connected transportation corridor. The map preserves the locations of several historic agrarian landmarks, such as McClung Mill on Hays Creek and Wades Mill further north, alongside established community centers like Rockbridge Baths and Fairfield.
