2023 Map of Portsmouth
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
Portsmouth serves as a focal point along the northern banks of the Ohio River, where the grid of city streets like Front St and Gallia St meets the campus of Shawnee State University. Across the water in Kentucky, the terrain transitions into a dense network of ridges and hollows, characterized by the steep ascent to Civil War Ridge and Pebble Hill. Small riverfront communities including Fullerton, South Shore, and South Portsmouth line the southern shore, while deeper in the Kentucky interior, settlements like Maloneton and Beechy are connected by winding creeks such as Tygarts Creek and Schultz Creek. This area illustrates the enduring importance of the river corridor, with the Ohio Kentucky railroad following the bank and numerous family cemeteries, such as Howe Cem and Fannin Cem, dotting the rural landscape away from the urban center.
