2013 Map of Long Spur

About this map

Cove Mountain and Piney Mountain define the topographical character of this portion of Pulaski County, where the landscape is marked by an intricate network of hollows bearing the names of early families and natural landmarks. Settled along the Little Creek Hwy, the community of Long Spur sits near several distinct drainages including Joe Graham Hollow and Wash Place Hollow. The northern reaches of the map follow the course of Little Walker Cr, while the southern area is dominated by Peak Cr and the Gatewood Reservoir. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring rural patterns of the region, from the crossroads at Forks of Road to the numerous named hollows like Schoolhouse Hollow and Brickkiln Hollow that reflect the area's social and industrial history.
