About this map

Stumpy Point and the small settlement of Lake Worth occupy a fragile threshold between the low-lying wetlands and the vast waters of Stumpy Point Bay. This coastal landscape is defined by the transition from the Pamlico Sound to interior marshlands, where drainage is marked by features like Back Lake and Deep Creek. The road network reveals the area's specialized use, with names such as Navy Lead Rd and Navy Shell Rd suggesting a history of military or governmental activity integrated into the swampy terrain. Narrow corridors like Long Curve Rd and Jackson Rd thread through the saturated ground, providing the only overland connections to landmarks such as Kazer Point along the Atlantic Ocean margin.
