Kentucky Route 1958 (KY 1958) is an 8.669 mile (13.951 km) long state highway in the Winchester, Kentucky area. The route, a bypass circling the perimeter of the city, is defined by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet as a north–south route despite the east–west alignment the bypass follows for most of its length. Its southern terminus is at Kentucky Route 627 (former US 227) a quarter-mile south of Interstate 64 exit 96 north of the city. The northern terminus is at Kentucky Route 2888 (Rockwell Road) mere yards from I-64 northwest of downtown.
The bypass was originally a connector route between I-64, Van Meter Road, Rockwell Road and US 60, but was extended south and southeast to KY 627 south of the city and, later, to its present terminus north of Winchester.

“The pure products of America go crazy—mountain folk from Kentucky or the ribbed north end of Jersey with its isolate lakes and valleys, its deaf-mutes, thieves.”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
