2023 Map of West Lowville

About this map

West Lowville and its surrounding rural uplands characterize this portion of Lewis County, where the terrain transitions toward the Tug Hill Plateau. The settlement pattern is defined by long, straight thoroughfares such as Number Three Rd and Rector Rd, which connect scattered farmsteads and historic hamlets like Windecker and Briggs Corner. Local heritage is preserved in several small burial grounds, including the West Lowville Rural Cem and Gallup Cem, which anchor the early families of the area to the landscape. Drainage for the region is provided by Mill Creek and Stony Creek, which cut through the agricultural fields and woodlots. The map captures the edge of the larger village of Lowville in the east, while the western reaches, including West Martinsburg, remain dominated by a network of local connectors like Boshart Rd and Mud St that have served the dairy and timber landscape for generations.
