1977 Map of Denton NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The agrarian landscape of Davidson County is captured here via orthophotography during the late 1970s. The terrain is characterized by the prominent elevation of Wildcat Mountain and the southern slopes of High Rock Mtn, overlooking the expansive waters of High Rock Lake. This aerial survey provides a clear view of the rural settlement patterns around Silver Hill and Cedar Grove, showing the patchwork of timbered hillsides and cleared fields. The map documents the relationship between the local road network and the convoluted shoreline of the lake, offering researchers a precise record of land use and property boundaries in this Piedmont region before subsequent residential development altered the rural character of the area.
