History
The original NC 14 was renumbered to NC 86 in the 1940 renumbering that matched North Carolina route numbers to those of Virginia. NC 65 was renumbered to NC 14 concurrently with that change.
In 1968, most of NC 14 was rebuilt as a new roadway, though it still connected Reidsville with Eden.
