US 61 and SR 553 meet but not in the middle of Fayette, instead they come together in the Western part of town. |

About the area |
Poplar Hill School was a rural school built in the early 20th century to serve the surrounding African American community. This is a one story wood frame building with a side-gable metal roof which was built around 1923. Since the school closed, it has been used by the Poplar Hill AME Church and still retains a large amount of original, historic detail. Its displays serve as an example of African American life and education in the first half of the Twentieth Century.
