1966 Map of Brookneal

The map details a transition from the industrial infrastructure of the river valley to the rural settlements of the Piedmont, such as Naruna, Terryville, and North Halifax. Evidence of mid-century community life is present in the numerous country churches like Hat Creek Ch and Beulah Ch, alongside a Drive-in Theater and the Boys Home near the Charlotte County line. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Falling River and Childrey Creek, which carve through the wooded hills surrounding the river basin.
