2020 Map of Brier Creek Landing

About this map

The Savannah River winds through a complex network of wetlands and oxbow lakes along the South Carolina and Georgia border, defining the landscape of Screven and Allendale counties. This 2020 survey highlights the intricate hydrology of the floodplain, where features like Conyers Lake and Miller Lake sit amidst a series of distinct river bends and named landings. Local nomenclature along the riverbanks reflects a long history of navigation and riverside life, preserved in colorful place names such as Whirligig Point, Saucy Boy Point, and Fridays Dream Point. Further inland, the map identifies small rural landmarks and family-named infrastructure, including Lee Cem and Brannons Bridge, alongside a network of timber and rural access roads like Haga Slaga Rd and Old River Rd.
