About Ashland

As the seat of Clay County, Ashland offers quiet, easygoing living among the rolling hills of east-central Alabama. Daily life centers around the historic courthouse square downtown, where local shops and government offices give the town a familiar, close-knit feel. Highways 9 and 77 intersect right in the middle of town, making it simple to run errands in neighboring Lineville or head out for a weekend hike in the nearby Talladega National Forest. It is a peaceful, scenic spot for anyone seeking space to spread out and a slower pace of life.
