About this map

Center Hill and the neighboring agricultural landscape near the Chowan and Perquimans county line are captured in this 2010 topographic record. The map details a predominantly rural expanse defined by slow-moving watercourses such as Goodwin Creek and the southern reaches of the Perquimans River. Small communities and crossroads like Beach Springs and Yeopim Station dot the landscape, connected by a network of local roads with evocative names like Happy Home Rd and Yellow Hammer Rd.

A primary point of interest for local researchers is the Tyner Post Office located near the intersection of Center Hill Rd and County Line Rd. The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the wetlands and drainage patterns of Bethel Creek, while the presence of Great Hope Church Rd points toward the community's long-standing social landmarks. The grid of forest and field remains largely intact, showing the persistent rural character of this coastal plain region in the early 21st century.
