2016 Map of Edenhouse

About this map

Chowan River dominates this 2016 survey, serving as the wide aquatic boundary between Chowan and Bertie counties as it flows toward the Atlantic Ocean and Albemarle Sound. The landscape is defined by the low-lying wetlands of the Inner Banks, where drainage features like Rockahock Swamp and Pollock Swamp thread through the wooded terrain. On the eastern shore, the historic town of Edenton is visible near the Bennett Mill Pond, showing its modern street grid and proximity to the water. Smaller settlements and rural crossroads such as Macedonia and Hancock are connected by a network of local roads like Chambers Ferry Rd and Wildcat Rd. Infrastructure highlights include the crossings at Bowman Bridge and Wildcat Bridge, which facilitate travel through the dense marshlands of Copper Neck and Cowpen Neck. Across the river, the western bank features the points of Edenhouse Point and Blackrock, marking a more dispersed pattern of residential development and agricultural land.
