About this map

Singers Glen serves as the central hub for this corner of Rockingham County, situated beneath the imposing ridge of North Mountain. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the densely wooded heights of the George Washington National Forest and the fertile valley floors drained by the Shoemaker River and Linville Creek. To the west, the steep terrain of Cross Mtn and Buck Lick Mtn is marked by remote stream runs like Black Lick Run and State Lick Run.

Genealogists will find a wealth of rural landmarks, particularly along the valley roads where several historic congregations are established. Notable sites include Green Mount Ch, Antioch Ch, and Gospel Hill Ch, alongside small settlements like Palos and Stultz Mill. Of particular interest is a dam under construction along the upper reaches of State Lick Run, indicating late 20th-century hydrological development in the mountains.
