2019 Map of Hamilton

About this map

The Roanoke River carves a deep, winding path through this landscape, serving as the natural boundary between Bertie and Martin counties. The town of Hamilton is positioned on the high ground overlooking a sharp river bend, where a traditional grid of streets including N Railroad St and E Main St meets rural connectors like Fort Branch Rd. This 2019 survey illustrates the dense hydrological network of the Inner Banks, where the primary river is fed by numerous tributaries such as Indian Cr and Conoho Cr. Large wetland areas like Broadneck Swamp and Huskaw Swamp dominate the low-lying terrain, interspersed with agricultural clearings and small settlements like Ballard. Private landmarks, including the Roy Everett Hunting Club Pond, underscore the region's long-standing connection to the land and water.
