2017 Map of Brittons Neck

About this map

Brittons Neck stands as the primary settlement in this low-lying region where the Little Pee Dee River defines the border between Marion and Horry Counties. This coastal plain landscape is defined by its complex hydrography, characterized by dozens of oxbow lakes and named islands that shift within the river's course. Features such as Jack Lake, Gunter Lake, and Canoe Lake illustrate the river's historic meandering, while landmarks like Upper Dog Bluff and Lower Dog Bluff mark significant points along the western bank. The area transition into extensive wetland systems, including Brunson Swamp and Palmetto Swamp, which hem in the cultivated lands and local roads. This 2017 survey details the rural road network including Tobacco Bed Rd and Schoolhouse Rd, which connect the scattered homesteads and agricultural plots to the river crossings that have long dictated the area's geography.
