1951 Map of Bath

About this map

Bath sits at the confluence of several tidal waterways, serving as the focal point for this survey along the northern shores of the Pamlico River. The landscape is defined by the fingers of Bath Creek, Back Creek, and Adams Creek, where points like Bonners Pt and Handys Pt mark the transition from water to land. This mid-century record reflects a coastal community tied closely to the river and its numerous guts, such as Teachs Gut and Plum Pt Gut, which weave through the low-lying terrain.
