According to Wikipedia &#8211; Paint Rock was settled in the 1820s, and was initially known as &#8220;Camden.&#8221; A post office was established in 1836, and a railroad depot was constructed in 1856. The name was changed from Camden to &#8220;Paint Rock&#8221; in 1876.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/t1O4c_5GqoM\">Click here to join the adventure!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/allthingstonyj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Paintrockthumbnail-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/allthingstonyj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Paintrockthumbnail-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allthingstonyj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Paintrockthumbnail-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/allthingstonyj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Paintrockthumbnail-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/allthingstonyj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Paintrockthumbnail-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/allthingstonyj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Paintrockthumbnail-1.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this rural exploration micro-adventure I explore abandoned barns, homes and more in Paint Rock Valley, Alabama!There are so many abandoned homes, barns and homesteads to explore in rural America that many will never see.
