About this map

Piedmont Mill and Dillons Mill stand as markers of the rural water-powered industry that once shaped this portion of Franklin County. Situated at the western edge of Smith Mountain Lake, the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Blackwater River and the Pigg River. These waterways are flanked by long-established communities like Redwood and Burnt Chimney, the latter featuring its own namesake Burnt Chimney Dairy and Burnt Chimney Airport.

Historical crossings and land use patterns are evident through features such as Smith Ford and Brooks Ford, alongside the Brooks Mill Bridge. The terrain transitions from the lowlands near Foul Ground Cr to the prominent rise of Preston Knob and Timber Ridge in the southeast. This survey provides a clear view of the modern road network, including Burnt Chimney Rd and Bonbrook Mill Rd, connecting the dispersed settlements of Bonbrook, Flint Hill, and Crossroads.
