About this map

Sherwood and the smaller settlement of Nevins anchor this 2010 topographic survey of central Wisconsin, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the East Fork Black River. The area maintains a rural, grid-based road network, though the natural hydrology of numerous tributaries like Lead Creek, Toms Creek, and Rocky Run frequently disrupts the geometric regularity of the section lines. This interplay between straight-line township roads and meandering waterways creates a complex drainage pattern typical of this region's glacial history.

Local landmarks such as Sherwood Lake 15 and the adjacent Sherwood Dam provide focal points for the community, while the Sherwood Cemetery serves as a primary site for genealogical interest. The map detail extends south to include the drainages of Hay Creek and Skunk Creek, illustrating how the land use transitions from open tracts to the more densely wooded corridors following the river and its many small branches.
