2010 Map of Moorefield

About this map

The Licking River carves a meandering course across the northern reaches of this Nicholas County landscape, defining a terrain of deep creek valleys and upland ridges. The settlement of Moorefield serves as a central hub for the local road network, where routes like Dixie Hwy and Jackson Rd connect rural homesteads. This 2010 survey illustrates a well-established agricultural pattern, with family-named corridors such as Hickey Rd and Durham Rd threading between drainage basins. To the east, the small community of Sprout sits near the confluence of Cane Run and Cassidy Creek, while Weston occupies the western portion of the map along Somerset Creek. The prevalence of small branches and forks, including Jerdan Branch and Brushy Fork, suggests a landscape historically dominated by small-scale farming and livestock operations dependent on these natural water sources.
