About this map

Fort Blackmore stands near the banks of the Stony Creek in the southern portion of this 1916 survey, representing a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep mountain gaps. The area around Wise and Norton shows a concentrated network of early 20th-century industry and infrastructure, particularly at Dorchester Junction where the Norfolk and Western railway lines navigate the difficult terrain of Little Stone Mountain.
