1953 Map of Columbia West

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Scuppernong River winds through the coastal lowlands of Tyrrell County, defining the local geography as it flows toward Bull Bay and the vast Albemarle Sound. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to the water, where numerous landings such as River Neck Landing, Back Landing, and Simmons Landing once served as vital access points for transportation and commerce. The settlement of Columbia sits at a critical bend in the river, anchoring the eastern portion of the map near the Scuppernong township.
