1977 Map of Elliotts Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Arlington occupies a prominent position on the Eastern Shore of Virginia in this 1970s orthophotoquad, which captures the immediate coastline where land meets the Chesapeake Bay. The map provides a photographic record of the landscape as it appeared in late 1977, showing the intricate network of tidal inlets including Elliotts Creek and Old Plantation Cr. The terrain is characterized by a high contrast between cultivated fields and dense coastal vegetation, illustrating the agricultural and maritime patterns of Northampton County. This aerial perspective, produced in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, offers a detailed view of drainage patterns and land use that traditional line-drawn topographic maps often generalize, making it a valuable resource for understanding the historical shoreline and property boundaries of this coastal region.
