2019 Map of Straightstone

About this map

The Roanoke River carves a deep, winding path through the borderlands of Campbell and Pittsylvania counties, defining the character of this central Virginia landscape. Small rural communities like Straightstone and Level Run anchor the southern portion of the sheet, connected by a network of winding county roads such as Level Run Rd. To the northwest, the Mansion Truss Bridge spans the water near the settlement of Hodges, providing a critical crossing point for the local agricultural economy. Genealogists and local historians will find points of interest at the New Bethel Cem near Grit, while the terrain is dominated by features like Brown Mtn and the various tributaries feeding into the main river valley, including Beechtree Cr and Little Straightstone Cr. The map captures a region where development remains secondary to the natural drainage patterns of the Virginia piedmont.
