About this map

The Brazos River meanders along the western edge of this landscape, defining the low-lying Clark Bottom and feeding a network of local drainages like Beason Cr and Red Gully. This part of Waller County is characterized by dispersed rural settlements and family landmarks, including the small community of Howth and the residential layout of Rolling Hills near Rolling Hills Lake. The area's history is anchored by several burial grounds, such as Salem Cem, Rock Island Cem, and Cedar Creek Cem, which often represent the centers of earlier farming communities.

Infrastructure here is a mix of traditional farm-to-market roads and newer residential streets, particularly around Rolling Hills where names like Antrim St and Cork St indicate a planned development. Meanwhile, older paths like Double Culvert Rd and Carl Loggins Rd connect the scattered homesteads of Second Corinth and Rock Island. Water remains a central feature, from the secluded Los Robles Lake to the steady flow of Cedar Cr.
