1907 Map of Natural Bridge Special
USGS Topo · Published 1922About this map
Industrial ruins and river-bound commerce define this early 20th-century landscape at the intersection of Rockbridge and Botetourt counties. The iron industry's legacy is visible in the remains of Jane Furnace and Rebecca Furnace near Rocky Ford, while active milling is documented at Rapps Mill, Red Mills, and Gilmore Mills. The James River serves as the central artery for the region, paralleled by competing rail lines including the Norfolk and Western RR and the Chesapeake and Ohio RR.
