About this map

Orangeburg sits at the center of this Kentucky landscape, where the local road network connects small agricultural communities across Mason and Fleming counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Licking River and its numerous tributaries, including Stone Lick Br and Indian Run. This 2016 survey captures the rural character of the region, anchored by the Fleming-Mason Airport and the historic cemetery at Nash Cem.

Settlements like Rectorville, Mount Gilead, and Poplar Grove are linked by a dense web of named pikes and lanes, such as Polecat Pike and Creamery Pike, reflecting generations of farm-to-market transit. Natural landmarks like Sycamore Hill and Grant Lake provide a sense of the undulating topography north of the Licking River valley, while smaller communities like Somo and Plumville remain distinct markers of local identity.
