2022 Map of London

About this map

The Laurel County Judicial Center stands as a focal point in this survey of London and its northern surroundings in Laurel County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Little Laurel River and the South Fork Rockcastle River, which carve through the terrain near smaller settlements like Maplesville and McWhorter. To the northwest, the map documents the areas of East Bernstadt and Pittsburg, showing the transition from the city center to more rural areas and the edges of the Daniel Boone National Forest. Genealogists and local historians will find numerous small burial grounds noted, such as Mount Carmel Cem, Litton Cem, and Old Salem Cem, which offer physical links to the early families who settled this part of the Cumberland Plateau. The density of stream branches like Slate Lick and Watkins Br illustrates the well-watered topography that influenced the placement of these historic Kentucky communities.
