1982 Map of Currituck

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Currituck stands as a focal point along the northeastern North Carolina coast, where land and water merge through a network of wetlands and tidal inlets. This orthophotomap reveals the transition from the cultivated fields around Sligo and Shawboro to the expansive Great Swamp and the North Landing River. The area’s maritime and transport history is evident in the path of the Intracoastal Waterway and the Knotts Island Ferry crossing. Inland, the Norfolk Southern railroad line links small rural communities like Snowden and Gregory. Spiritual and community life is documented through numerous country churches, including Plymoor Mem Ch and Weeping Mary Ch, alongside local landmarks such as the Currituck Co Airport and Central Sch. The map provides a detailed view of the 1980s landscape before modern coastal development altered the rural character of the county.
