Although many of the roads in Jessamine Countyare lined with these wonderful limestone fences, probably the most scenic of all, is the highway known as Harrodsburg Road or US 68. As depicted in this photo, the fences run for miles past beautiful old antebellum homes and horse farms. Despite some efforts by various sources to destroy these historic landmarks, in the name of progress, Jessamine County has been successful in maintaining these fences, built by the ancestors of many Jessamine Countians.
