About this map

High Rock Lake and its intricate northern inlets dominate this Davidson County landscape, where the eastern banks meet the rising terrain of Grist Mountain and Wildcat Mountain. This 2013 survey illustrates the residential expansion along the shoreline, characterized by developments like High Rock Mountain Shores and Oakwood Acres. Further inland, the map preserves the names of older rural hubs and gathering places, including Cedar Grove and Silver Hill, which sit at the intersection of long-established country routes like Silver Hill Rd.

Transport and education footprints appear through features such as the Brown Loftin Bridge crossing a finger of the lake and the site of Poplar College near the eastern edge. Local industry and spiritual life are represented by Snider Mill and several community landmarks including Holloway Church, Summerville Church, and Mountain View Church. The mapping of small watercourses like Flat Swamp Cr and Buddle Br provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns feeding into the reservoir.
