2016 Map of Castalia

About this map

The town of Castalia serves as the focal point of this Nash County landscape, where the rural character of the North Carolina coastal plain is defined by a series of historic road junctions. These intersections, including Lancaster Crossroads, Matthews Crossroads, Mays Crossroads, and Edwards Crossroads, illustrate a settlement pattern based on local commerce and community gathering points. The terrain is deeply influenced by the drainage of Big Peachtree Cr and Little Peachtree Cr, which feed into Boddies Millpond. To the south, Boddie Bridge spans the local wetlands near the community of Corinth. The map also details the Nash County Wildlife Lake and numerous smaller tributaries like Tumbling Run and Back Swamp, reflecting the region's agricultural and natural resource orientation. This 2016 survey provides a precise view of the modern road network, from Church St in the village center to the outlying Race Track Rd.
