1966 Map of Stephens City
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Stephens City serves as the focal point of this Frederick County landscape, where the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor meets the developing interstate system at Interchange 78. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Opequon Creek and its tributaries, including Stephens Run and Hoge Run. This survey captures a moment of transition, showing the expansion of transportation infrastructure alongside established rural landmarks like the Sacred Heart Monastery and several local congregations such as Macedonia Ch and Ridings Chapel. Industrial footprints are evident in numerous quarries and shale pits, while smaller communities like Bartonville and Nineveh maintain their traditional footprints near the Clarke and Warren County borders. Other unique sites of the era include a drive-in theatre and the State Prison Camp No 7 near Double Tollgate.
