Licking View

Few communities in Ohio have a history as closely tied to river travel and settlement in the Muskingum Valley as Licking View. This small locality lies in Muskingum County, amid the rolling uplands around Zanesville, where the Licking River meets the Muskingum River. These waterways shaped movement through eastern Ohio and connect the area to the wider Ohio River basin. Nearby Zanesville is known for the Y-Bridge, a three-way crossing at the rivers’ meeting point, and for a pottery industry that flourished in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Licking View belongs to this river-and-ridge setting rather than to a separate urban centre.
