About this map

Natural Bridge of Alabama stands as a primary landmark in this section of the Cumberland Plateau, where the town of Natural Bridge and the nearby village of Lynn anchor a landscape defined by deeply incised creek valleys. The terrain is marked by numerous family and community burial grounds, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement history of the region. Notable sites include Mount Vernon Missionary Baptist Church Cem, Sardis Number 1 Baptist Church Cem, and the Ingle & Wakefield Cem.

The northern portion of the map is dominated by the William B. Bankhead National Forest, while the southern reaches follow the drainage of Blackwater Cr and Little Cr. Historical travel corridors like the Byler Rd and Yankee Trce illustrate the long-standing transportation patterns that connected these hill country communities. Smaller settlements like Glen Mary and Ashbank appear alongside distinctive topographic features such as Millstone Mtn and Bald Rock.
