2011 Map of Barr Lake

About this map

Twelvemile Creek and its many tributaries, including Hogpen Branch and Boggy Branch, dominate this landscape south of Lake Murray. The map documents a period of suburban transition for Lexington County, where established rural communities like Ethon Crossroads and Barr Crossing sit alongside developing residential areas such as Creekwood and Lakeland. The region is marked by numerous small, privately-named reservoirs and dams, such as Harmon Pond and Crout Pond, reflecting the local hydrology and land management of the early 21st century. Infrastructure for public services is visible through the Lexington Post Office and the Gilbert Fire Tower, while the Pisgah Cemetery serves as a grounded point of reference for local genealogy. The dense network of secondary roads, including Two Notch Rd and Wise Ferry Rd, indicates a community deeply connected by historical transit corridors.
