2019 Map of Cleveland

About this map

Cleveland serves as the primary hub in this portion of western Rowan County, where the NS rail line and Old US Hwy 70 intersect near the prominent Youngs Mtn. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Third Creek, Withrow Creek, and Beaverdam Cr, which carve through the terrain between established crossroads. Several small, historic communities such as Bear Poplar, Mount Ulla, and Mill Bridge are visible, connected by a web of local routes like Sherrills Ford Rd and Back Creek Church Rd. The presence of Corriher Field and numerous named roads reflecting local family lineages, such as McNeely Rd and Graham Rd, provides significant detail for those studying the rural development and land ownership patterns of this Piedmont region.
