1970 Map of Glenola

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Norfolk Southern railway corridor anchors the northeastern corner of this landscape, connecting the small community of Glenola with the neighboring settlement of Edgar. This region of Randolph County is defined by its deep network of rural congregations and topographic prominence. Numerous historic houses of worship, including Marlboro Ch, Hopewell Ch, and Liberty Grove Ch, are interspersed throughout the countryside, often serving as the primary landmarks for local families. To the south, the terrain rises significantly toward Caraway Mtn and Shepherd Mtn, where Mt Shepherd Camp sits near a prominent radio tower. The drainage of the Uwharrie River and its tributaries, such as the Little Uwharrie River and Caraway Creek, further shapes the area. A notable Covered Bridge is located along the Little Uwharrie River, representing a surviving piece of traditional transportation infrastructure in a decade of gradual modernization.
