The Northeast Cape Fear River carves a winding path through this corner of Duplin County, serving as the primary drainage for a network of wetlands and creeks. Small agricultural communities and crossroads settlements like Chinquapin and Sholars Crossroads are connected by a web of rural routes named for local families, including Joe Hop Williams Rd and George Dunn Sholar Rd. The landscape is defined by its watercourses, where Stocking Head Cr and Cypress Cr move through low-lying areas. The road network reveals the region's enduring rural character, with long-standing thoroughfares like Old Chinquapin Rd and Fountaintown Rd linking the hamlets of Sloan and Maready.
