2019 Map of London

About this map

London and the surrounding Laurel County landscape are defined by a complex network of ridgeline roads and winding hollows in this 2019 survey. The northern reaches of the city extend toward the community of Pittsburg, where the L & N RR corridor parallels the historic Old Richmond Road. The topography is shaped by significant water systems, including the headwaters of Wood Cr and the drainage of Little Laurel River, while the western edge of the sheet enters the protected timberlands of the Daniel Boone National Forest. To the northeast, small agricultural and residential settlements like McWhorter and Atlanta are connected by a dense web of secondary routes. Genealogists will find numerous family and community burial sites such as Moren Cem, Southard Cem, and Landrum Cem scattered across the upland plateaus, providing a clear record of local settlement patterns.
