About this map

Watts Creek and the Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor define the primary settlement axis in this southeastern Kentucky valley. The village of Rockholds sits at the junction of KY 26 and KY 511, serving as a hub for a dispersed rural population connected by narrow hollows and ridge roads. The landscape is heavily marked by the region's extractive economy, with numerous Strip Mines and a Strip Mine cut into the hillsides of Bunch Mountain and King Mountain.
