1994 Map of Gateswood

About this map

Gateswood serves as a central point in this part of Baldwin County, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of the Perdido River and the Styx River. The map captures an era of resource extraction and local utility, evidenced by several Claypit locations and an Oil Well situated near Allen Road. Infrastructure such as the Lookout Tower and a Meter Sta along the Pipelines suggests a managed timber or utility landscape during the mid-to-late 20th century.
