2013 Map of Dawson Crossroads

About this map

Conoconnara Swamp defines the low-lying drainage patterns of this Halifax County landscape, where agriculture and rural intersections anchor the local geography. The map captures a moment in the early 21st century where legacy farm roads and newer developments coexist. Settlements like Crowells Crossroads and Dawson Crossroads serve as central points for a network of named thoroughfares, reflecting a long history of family-owned land and timber operations. Notable landmarks include the Dunroamin Farms Airport and large agricultural tracts such as Douglas Hill Farm Rd and W W Cotton Farm Rd. Smaller waterways, including Hales Millpond Br and Deep Cr, cut through the terrain, illustrating the importance of natural drainage in this coastal plain environment. The road network, including Thirteen Bridges Rd, highlights the connectivity required for this rural community.
