Kentucky Route 263 (KY 263) is a south-north state highway running through central and northwest Warren County. It provides access to the community of Richardsville, as well as the northwestern corner of Warren County. ==Route description== KY 263 begins at a junction with KY 185, known locally as Richardsville Road.〔http://bunkerblast.info/roads/sr.html〕 The route enters the community of Richardsville almost immediately after it begins, winding through the center of the community. KY 263 then continues on a winding, elevated path in a northwestern direction for 3.2 miles before coming to a junction with the eastern terminus of KY 2631. Following this junction, KY 263 continues for 4.7 miles before entering the Riverside community. At Riverside, KY 263 splits to the west. Past this point, the route becomes considerably narrower for the rest of its length and lacks painted lines and dividers. KY 263 continues on a curvy path in a western direction through woodlands for another 2.3 miles before coming to a junction with the western terminus of KY 2631. Following this junction, KY 263 splits once again, in a new northern direction. The route then continues on for another 4.1 miles before reaching its northern terminus at Old Morgantown-Glasgow road in extreme northwestern Warren County. Until recent years, KY 263 extended northwest for another 1.5 miles to a ferry site at the confluence of the Barren and Green Rivers. When the ferry service that provided service to bordering Butler County across the rivers was recently discontinued, the final 1.5 miles of KY 263 reverted to county maintenance. Green River Union Meeting House stood near the current route. It was a part of the frontier revival in the states of Kentucky and Tennessee in the early 19th century. Kentucky Historical Road Marker 662, which gives a brief history of the house, stands near the southern terminus of KY 263.〔 http://migration.kentucky.gov/kyhs/hmdb/MarkerSearch.aspx?mode=All〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kentucky Route 263」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
