2014 Map of Pleasant Site

About this map

Pleasant Site and the surrounding woodlands of the Freedom Hills define this corner of Franklin County near the Colbert County line. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of small watercourses like Shoat Mill Br and Starky Mill Br, which hint at the region's historic reliance on water-powered industry. Settlement patterns are sparse, with homes and farms primarily concentrated along Winchester Rd and the smaller tracks of Sally Burns Rd. Family history is deeply rooted in the land here, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds including the Burns-Family Cem, James Cem, and the Patterson Cem. To the north, Todd Ridge and Malone Hollow provide distinct topographic relief, while the community of Pogo sits at a junction of roads in the western portion of the survey area.
