How to Use This Rossmore, West Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Rossmore, West Virginia. 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 West Virginia 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 Rossmore.

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.

About Rossmore, West Virginia

Rossmore is a locality in Logan County, West Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 241. The population density is 149.4 people per km². Rossmore is located at 37.8046°N, 81.9930°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 25601.

Rossmore unfolds along the banks of Island Creek, where the water moves with a heavy, deliberate pace through the narrow, shadowed corridors of the earth. It lies 40.4 miles south-southwest of St. Albans, WV (from St. Albans, WV: bearing 193°T), and is situated 18.7 miles east-northeast of Williamson. The landscape is defined by the steep, unrelenting inclines of the terrain, which rise sharply from the water’s edge to create a sense of compression, as if the land itself were holding its breath. Here, the air carries a persistent dampness, smelling of damp shale and the deep, dark loam of the Tomblin Wildlife Management Area that presses against the town’s borders. Light in Rossmore arrives late in the morning and departs early in the afternoon, filtered through the thick canopy of hardwoods that cling to the slopes, casting long, bruised purples across the ground when the sun begins to retreat behind the ridge.

History in Rossmore is written in the silence of abandoned tipples and the rusted skeletal remains of an industry that once carved the very rhythm of the day out of the stone. The economy has long since shifted, leaving behind a quietude that feels both weary and resilient, a place where the echoes of coal-camp life remain trapped in the architecture of the older houses. While the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the horizon far to the east, the immediate world is dominated by the narrow confines of Stratton Hollow, where the geography dictates the pace of life. Residents look toward the nearby Ridge View Twin Lakes for a sense of expanse, though the true character of the locality remains rooted in the deep, shaded hollows and the slow, persistent flow of the creek that binds the geography together.

About This Rossmore Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rossmore, West Virginia. Coordinates: 37.804558, -81.993016. 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 Rossmore includes the ZIP code (25601), telephone area code (304), county seat of Logan County (Logan), and school district assignment (Logan 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.
