Rugby - Panoramic View502 viewsThe Church in the lower right is Corinth Baptist Church. The farm in the center of the photo was part of the old Tucker place, IIRC. Wayne Henderson's luthiers shop is across the road from these farm buildings, but obscured in this photo by trees. The road to the lower left leads to Helton, the roads to the right both lead to U.S. 58 and depending on the turn either to Whitetop or Volney. Taken from the dividing ridge between Grassy Creek and Rugby on June 26, 2007 by Jeff Weaver.
