1980 Map of Montevallo

About this map

The University of Montevallo anchors the northwestern corner of this Shelby and Chilton County borderland, where the industrial and educational character of Alabama's interior is clearly visible. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of extractive industry, particularly the extensive Quarry operations and Tailings near Roberta. This economic activity is balanced by a strong network of rural community institutions, evidenced by a high density of country churches and family burial grounds including Dry Creek Ch, Clarks Chapel, and the Old Rock Springs Cem.
