About this map

The lowland interior of Horry County is defined by an intricate network of wetlands, including Chinners Swamp and the sprawling Maple Swamp. This landscape is characterized by its numerous bay formations, such as Watery Bay and Brown Bay, which dictate the placement of local settlements and roads. The transportation network centers on several key junctions, most notably Maple Crossroads, Baker Crossroads, and Rabon Crossroads, where rural communities have historically coalesced around the intersections of county roads and highways.

Industrial and agricultural features are evident in landmarks like Pond Dam and the various branches feeding into Kingston Lake near the border of Conway. Local history researchers will find significant markers of family and community heritage, including the Thompson Cem and Mount Pisgah Cemetery Rd. The map illustrates a transitional landscape where established hamlets like Homewood and Adrian remain connected by traditional routes such as the Magnolia Hwy and Broad St.
