2013 Map of Chatham

About this map

Chatham serves as the focal point of this Virginia landscape, surrounded by a dense network of residential developments including Gilmer Terrace, Woodlawn Heights, and Halifax Hills. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Banister River and its numerous tributaries, such as Cherrystone Cr and Bearskin Cr. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern residential expansion around the historic core, while the presence of the State Prison Camp Number 15 and various named mills like Jones Mill point to the diverse land use in Pittsylvania County. Small rural settlements like Weal and Flint Hill persist along the winding secondary roads that branch away from the main corridors of Route 57 and Route 29. Significant water bodies such as Falls Lake and Selfs Lake are prominent landmarks in the northern half of the quadrangle.
