About this map

High Rock Lake defines the western edge of this landscape, its fingers reaching into the backcountry through inlets like Abbotts Creek and Swamp Creek. The interior is a mixture of small rural settlements and religious centers such as Silver Hill and Cedar Grove. The transportation network is anchored by the Winston-Salem Southbound railroad, which skirts the shoreline. Local heritage is preserved in a concentration of community landmarks, including Bethany Ch, Floyd Ch, and several family-named cemeteries like Workman Cem. Notable elevation changes occur toward the east at Grist Mtn and Wildcat Mtn, while the crossing at Brown Loftin Bridge provides a vital link over the lower reaches of Swamp Creek. This 1980s-era survey captures the area's transition into a residential and recreational corridor near Oakwood Acres.
