PICKAWAY RURAL HISTORIC DISTRICT

As described in the Historic Register annotations, the Pickaway Rural Historic District is level to moderately rolling land surrounded by moderately hilly land devoted to pasture and is backed in the distance by Peters Mountain or the Allegheny Front to the east and south; by Swopes Knobs and the Appalachian Mountains to the west. The very prominent Bicketts Knob to the west is seen from all areas of the historic landscape. Peters Mountain is named after Peter Wright.

The landscape within the Pickaway Rural Historic District continues as an agricultural resource after two hundred years as Monroe Countys premier agricultural example, maintaining its nineteenth and early twentieth century agricultural integrity. {Section 7, Page 1; Page 5}
