About this map

North Landing River dominates this orthophotograph, providing a detailed look at the Virginia and North Carolina borderlands in the late 1970s. This hybrid map combines traditional cartographic labels with aerial photography, revealing the precise layout of agricultural fields and marshlands surrounding the settlements of Creeds and Munden. The intricate drainages of Blackwater Creek wind through the western portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Atlantic coastal plain. The small community of Vine is situated amidst a grid of active farmland, showing the land-use patterns prior to modern coastal development. In the south, the transition from the river into Tull Bay captures the character of this tidewater region, where the interplay of water and land dictated the placement of small rural villages and their connecting roads.
