Union township

Smith Valley Road at Birdvale

Smith Valley Road running east through Birdvale, a village in Union township that the photographer notes is also called Birdville. The shot was taken in August 2024 between Boutwell Lane and Birdvale Road.

Checked against the record. The description names the village, the township, the county and the two roads the view sits between. The alternative name Birdville is the photographer's own note, carried across rather than resolved.
