2019 Map of Belews Creek

About this map

Kernersville anchors the southern portion of this landscape at the intersection of Forsyth and Guilford counties. The area is defined by a dense network of suburban development and family-named landmarks, reflecting the rapid growth of the Piedmont Triad region. To the north, the massive Belews Lake and smaller bodies of water like Upper Merchants Lake and Lower Merchants Lake dominate the hydrography, while the headwaters of the Haw River and Reedy Fork carve through the eastern terrain. Small historical hubs such as Stokesdale, Oak Ridge, and Crims Crossroads are visible, connected by a high concentration of established routes like Reidsville Rd and Kernersville Rd. This survey preserves the exact footprint of local institutions such as the Eastlawn Gardens of Memory and the industrial-transport junction at Talleys Crossing, documenting the transition from rural crossroads to contemporary suburban centers.
