About this map

Center Hill and the surrounding rural landscape of Chowan County are defined by a network of drainage systems and agricultural corridors in this early 21st-century record. The area is marked by significant wetlands, including Bagley Swamp and Pollock Swamp, which feed into local waterways such as the Perquimans River and Goodwin Cr. These natural features dictate the placement of local thoroughfares like Center Hill Rd and N Bear Swamp Rd.

Small communities like Beach Springs and Yeopim Station serve as focal points for the region's transportation network, which is characterized by descriptively named routes such as Happy Home Rd and Chicken Rd. The map illustrates a traditional coastal plain settlement pattern where residences and farmsteads follow established roads like Great Hope Church Rd, maintaining a distinct separation from the low-lying basins of Bethel Cr.
