2013 Map of Conner Lake

About this map

Roanoke River meanders across the northern reaches of this rural landscape, carving a wide valley that serves as the primary drainage for numerous tributaries like Buckskin Cr and Hunting Cr. This interior Virginia terrain is defined by a dense network of country roads and trails named for local families and early industry, including Hardings Mill Rd and Lloyd Mill Rd. Central to the map is Conner Lake, which gathers the waters of Hunting Cr before it flows toward the eastern riverbend. Scattered settlements like Providence, Crossroads, and Watkins mark traditional gathering points in this agricultural region. The inclusion of names such as Quarles School Trl suggests the historical footprint of former community centers, while Coles Ferry Rd and Mortons Ferry Rd indicate the long-standing importance of river crossings in connecting these rural outposts.
