2016 Map of New Castle

About this map

New Castle and Eminence anchor this portion of Henry County, illustrating the transition of these Kentucky communities into the 21st century. The landscape is defined by the branching tributaries of the Little Kentucky River, including White Sulphur Fork and Fallen Timber Cr. These waterways create a complex topography of ridges and hollows that dictate the winding paths of rural routes like Campbellsburg Rd and Eminence Rd. For genealogists and local historians, several family-named burial sites are preserved across the terrain, notably the Chinn-Elley-Dupuy-Smith Cem and Webb Cem. Small-scale aviation facilities such as the John M Foree Airport and Deer Run Airpark sit alongside traditional water features like Eminence Lake and the Henry County Rod and Gun Club Lake, reflecting the diverse modern use of the land between these historic settlements.
