How to Use This Sharpsburg, Kentucky Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sharpsburg, Kentucky. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Kentucky or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Sharpsburg.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Sharpsburg occupies a pocket of the Kentucky landscape where the limestone bedrock dictates the slow, deliberate pace of the soil. It lies 17.6 miles east of Paris, KY (from Paris, KY: bearing 92°T), and is situated 9.3 miles southeast of Carlisle. The Town Branch cuts a narrow, winding path through the local terrain, its waters often reflecting the heavy, humid light that settles over the fields in the late afternoon. Beyond the immediate pastures, the horizon holds the faint, bruised silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains, visible only when the air loses its summer haze. Flemings Pond stays quiet and still, a dark mirror for the sycamores that stand watch along its perimeter, while the nearby Clay Wildlife Management Area offers a vast, untended expanse of thickets and grasses that seem to hold the heat of the day long after the sun has slipped behind the fence lines.

Sharpsburg preserves the quiet gravity of a place built on the cycles of harvest and the persistence of local trade. The economy remains tethered to the surrounding acreage, where the rhythm of the work year is measured by the changing color of the tobacco leaves and the steady maintenance of the equipment that keeps the land productive. History here is not a loud affair but a quiet accumulation of generations who have managed the transition from early settlement to the present day, leaving their mark in the sturdy architecture of the older storefronts and the well-worn paths that lead toward the distant Olympia State Forest. Life in Sharpsburg feels like a long, steady breath, sustained by a deep-seated connection to the geography that defines the Upper South, where the air smells faintly of damp earth and the coming rain.

About This Sharpsburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sharpsburg, Kentucky. Coordinates: 38.202021, -83.929368. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Sharpsburg includes the ZIP code (40374), telephone area code (502), county seat of Bath County (Owingsville), and school district assignment (Bath County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
