2011 Map of Cross Hill

About this map

Cross Hill serves as a central hub for this portion of Laurens County, where several secondary routes and local roads converge. The settlement pattern reflects a long-standing agricultural and rural residential character, with family-named landmarks such as Hollingworths Pond and Thomason Airfield dotting the landscape. Significant genealogical data is preserved through the locations of Cross Hill Cemetery, Bethabara Cemetery, and Head Springs Cemetery, which are scattered among the creek drainages. To the south, the expansive waters of Lake Greenwood define the lower boundary of the quadrangle near the Black Gate. The area is heavily dissected by watercourses including Beaverdam Creek, Little River, and North Campbell Creek, which feed into the larger reservoir. Smaller communities like Mountville and Milton in the north, along with White Plains Crossroad, maintain the rural connectivity of this Piedmont landscape.
