Live Webcams in Scottsville

Scottsville, Kentucky, is the seat of Allen County in the south of the state, a courthouse town laid out in 1816 that never got around to tearing itself down, and the live webcams in Scottsville watch its main street: the square, the brick storefronts on the National Register, and the pickups that pull in for lunch. The square and its courthouse are the stage, where the pace is set by the clock and the weather rather than by traffic. The town keeps Central Time, UTC−6, UTC−5 in summer, which makes a European evening the busiest hour of the Kentucky day, lunchtime. Barren River Lake, west of town, spreads across some 10,000 acres of drowned farmland and is where the county goes on a summer weekend. April to June and September to October show the square at its best.
