2013 Map of Robards

About this map

Robards serves as the central hub of this Henderson County landscape, situated where the historic grid of Railroad St and 1st St meets the modern transit corridor of the Edward T Breathitt Pennyrile Pkwy. The region is defined by an intricate drainage system including Canoe Cr, Groves Cr, and Grane Cr, which carve through a network of rural roads often bearing the names of early resident families. Local industry and recreation are evident in features such as Coal Mine Rd near the town center and Sportsman Lake to the east. The map captures a moment of transition where traditional Kentucky farm roads like Busby Station Rd and Cherry Hill RD intersect with modern infrastructure, preserving a record of the area's development and land use patterns.
