2017 Map of Granville

About this map

Granville serves as the primary hub for this McHenry County landscape, oriented around a grid of streets including 6th St and Main St. The local cemetery, Granville Cem, is located just northeast of the town center. The surrounding terrain is defined by the interconnected waters of Buffalo Lodge Lake and North Lake, which are bordered by the prominent rise of Buffalo Lodge Butte. This survey illustrates a characteristic Great Plains drainage pattern, where seasonal waterways like Hay Coulee and the meandering Egg Creek navigate the undulating prairie. The map records a dense network of sectional roads, such as 66th St N and Co Rd 1, which facilitate access to the agricultural lands between South Egg Creek and the various marshy basins that dot the region.
