2016 Map of Britton

About this map

Joe Pool Lake dominates the eastern half of this landscape, a reservoir whose shoreline borders Grand Prairie, Cedar Hill, and portions of Mansfield. At the center of the sheet, the small settlement of Britton sits directly on the boundary between Tarrant and Ellis counties, serving as a quiet crossroads amidst the rapid northward expansion of Arlington. The area south of Britton remains largely defined by agricultural tracts and creek drainages like Mountain Creek and Soap Creek, while the northern reaches show the dense suburban development typical of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in the twenty-first century.
