2011 Map of Elliotts Creek

About this map

Old Plantation Creek and the narrow coastal corridor of Northampton County define this maritime landscape on the eastern edge of the Chesapeake Bay. The map reveals a cluster of shoreline communities and managed water bodies just south of the Cape Charles Harbor Channel. Small residential developments like Virginias Chesapeake Shores, Arlington, and Bay Ridge are tucked between the bay and a series of ponds including Allegood Pond, Costin Pond, and Dixons Pond. The hydrography here is particularly intricate, where Elliotts Creek and Pond Drain navigate the low-lying terrain. This coastal survey documents the interface between the Old Plantation Flats and the established rural roads like Lake Dr and Elliotts Creek Ln that serve these waterfront enclaves.
