1974 Map of Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Beach settlement appears as a primary focal point in this 1974 orthophotoquad, situated amidst the wooded and agricultural terrain of south-central Virginia. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Swift Creek and the broader drainage patterns associated with the Appomattox river basin. This aerial perspective, captured in the mid-1970s, reveals a rural fabric transitioning toward more modern development patterns. It offers a precise visual record of field boundaries, forest stands, and road networks as they existed before decades of suburban expansion. For those researching the history of the area, the map provides an exacting look at the physical distribution of homes and timberlands near the historic rail stop at Beach.
