2011 Map of Green Bank

About this map

The Mullica River defines the geography of this Atlantic County landscape, winding through a complex network of wetlands and tidal creeks. In the north, the river separates Herman and Green Bank from Lower Bank and Wading River, where the terrain begins to break into salt marshes and small islands like Hog Islands. To the south, the pattern of settlement shifts from riverfront outposts like Glouster Landing and Clarks Landing to the inland agricultural and residential developments of Germania and Cologne. These inland areas are marked by a distinct grid of streets with European names, such as Bremen Ave and Antwerp Ave, reflecting the region's cultural heritage. Local history and genealogy are anchored by sites such as the Germania Cemetery and the Clarks Mill Burying Ground near the Moss Mill Lake Dam. Further east, the landscape transitions into the wooded surroundings of Tarkiln Branch and Big Creek.
