1970 Map of Hampstead
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The coastal village of Hampstead serves as the inland anchor for this 1970 orthophotomap, which vividly captures the barrier island complex of Pender County. The landscape is defined by the intricate networks of Topsail Sound and Middle Sound, where tidal marshlands are carved by deep-water arteries like Nixon Channel and Green Channel. This era shows the developed strip of Topsail Beach before subsequent decades of hurricane activity and shoreline migration significantly reshaped the inlets.
