2002 Map of Hamlet

About this map

The railroad town of Hamlet and the neighboring city of Rockingham anchor this early 21st-century landscape, which remains deeply connected to its water resources. A complex system of ponds and creeks, such as Hitchcock Cr and Falling Creek, supported industrial and agricultural development, as evidenced by Gibsons Millpond and Ledbetter Lake. The residential expansion is visible in neighborhoods like Highland Pines, Knob Hill, and New Town, while the edges of the map transition into the protected environment of the Sandhills State Game Land.
