2015 Map of Ayrshire

About this map

Ayrshire serves as the central hub of this Palo Alto County landscape, where the town grid is defined by streets like Ayr St and Allowa St. The surrounding terrain is a complex network of managed waterways, featuring several engineered channels such as Ditch Number 6, Ditch Number 23, and Ditch Number 176 that navigate between natural flows like Silver Cr and Beaver Cr. This pattern of drainage reflects the agricultural necessity of moving water through the low-lying prairie lands of northern Iowa. To the southwest of the town site, Silver Lake provides a significant natural landmark, flanked by the Calvary Cem and Silver Lake Cem. The map illustrates a strictly organized section-line road system, with thoroughfares like Co Hwy B53 and Co Hwy N28 connecting the dispersed farmsteads of the T95N and T96N townships.
