2023 Map of Hanesville

About this map

Fairlee Neck and the surrounding Kent County countryside define this 2023 landscape, where the Eastern Shore meets the Chesapeake Bay. The map documents a residential and agricultural pattern marked by small, waterfront-oriented communities such as Chesapeake Landing and Great Oak Manor. The maritime history of the area is evident in the numerous coves and points, including Worton Point and the Intracostal Waterway which cuts through the bay. Inland, the settlement of Hanesville serves as a local hub near Saint James Methodist Cem, illustrating the enduring nature of local burial grounds and community centers. The network of winding local roads like Saint James Newtown Rd and Buck Neck Rd connect these established landings to the larger farms and woodlots that characterize this part of Maryland's tidewater region.
