2013 Map of Ruther Glen

About this map

Ruther Glen and the surrounding Caroline County landscape are defined by a network of historic crossroads and waterway-linked settlements. The area shows a transition from traditional rural hubs like Balty, Athens, and Moncure Corner toward more modern developments such as Caroline Pines and Lake Pinewood. The legacy of 19th-century industry is visible in labels like Colemans Millpond and Colemans Mill Crossing, while the strategic importance of the transportation corridor is evidenced by the convergence of Us-1 and Jefferson Davis Hwy. Local history is anchored by Carmel Church, situated near the intersection of modern bypasses and older routes like Jericho Rd. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the North Anna River and Bull Run, contrasting with the swampy terrain of Rafe Swamp and Saddle Swamp to the east.
