2013 Map of Folkstone
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
Folkstone and the surrounding Onslow County wetlands are defined by a complex network of slow-moving water and military history in this 2013 survey. The landscape is dominated by the Purgatory Pocosin, a unique shrub-bog ecosystem characteristic of the Carolina coastal plain, and punctuated by numerous drainage systems including Juniper Swamp and Big Shakey Swamp. The presence of Camp Davis and the Camp Davis Marine Corps Outlying Field reflects the area's strategic importance for military aviation training, with clearings and runways carved out from the surrounding woods. Local roads such as Hines Stump Sound Church Rd and Cemetery Rd provide access to rural homesteads and historic community sites near Kings Cr, illustrating the sparse but enduring residential patterns of this coastal region.
