2019 Map of Aquadale

About this map

Rocky River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Stanly and Anson Counties, anchoring a landscape defined by small rural hubs and historic creek-side settlements. Near the town of Norwood, the terrain is etched with numerous named watercourses such as Richardson Creek and Cribs Creek, reflecting the importance of local hydrography in the area's development. The rural character of the region is further punctuated by the small communities of Cottonville and Aquadale, connected by a network of roads that hint at past industry and transit, including Efird Mill Rd and Gaddy's Ferry Rd.
