USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
Dover and the surrounding Hillsborough County countryside are defined by a complex mosaic of industrial phosphate mining and established rural communities in this mid-century portrait. Massive swaths of land are marked as Strip Mines and Reclaimed Strip Mine, indicating the intensity of the extraction industry that reshaped the local topography. This industrial footprint contrasts with the social centers of the era, such as Turkey Creek Sch and numerous country churches like Lone Oak Ch and Ahava Ch.
