2010 Map of Ellisboro

About this map

Ellisboro and the surrounding Rockingham County countryside are defined by a dendritic network of waterways that flow toward the Dan River in the north. The landscape is marked by small settlements like Gold Hill and the uniquely named Intelligence, which are connected by a web of rural routes. Many of these roads, such as Tobacco Rd, reflect the agricultural heritage of this North Carolina region. Toward the southeast, Price Mill Lake and the Price Mill Lake Dam represent a significant hydraulic feature on Troublesome Creek. The topography is shaped by various branches including Hogans Creek, Jacobs Creek, and Brushy Creek, which carve through the terrain. Evidence of local industry and historical movement is seen in labels like Kallam Mill Rd and Baggage Rd, pointing to the mills and transit paths that once served this rural community.
