2019 Map of Belton

About this map

Nolan Creek and the Leon River converge near the growing suburban landscape of central Texas, where the historic communities of Belton and Temple meet. This 2019 survey documents a region characterized by significant river systems and transportation corridors, including the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad Bridge crossing over the Leon. The map reveals a dense concentration of local heritage sites, particularly cemeteries such as North Belton Cem, South Belton Cem, and the more rural Ferguson Cem further east. The topography is marked by the steep rise of Hartrick Bluff and the waters of Belton Lake in the northwest, illustrating the transition from the manicured parks and residential developments like Childers Springs to the more open terrain near Taylors Valley.
