2016 Map of Ingold

About this map

Six Runs Creek and the Black River dominate this low-lying landscape of Sampson County, where a intricate network of drainage and wetlands defines the local geography. The settlement of Ingold sits at a crossroads in the northwest, while the community of Clear Run is positioned near the southern reaches of the river from which it takes its name. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named roads and watercourses, reflecting a deeply rooted rural infrastructure. Significant wetland areas like Hog Island Swamp and Bills Swamp are interspersed with smaller tributaries such as Tarkill Br and Gaddy Br. The presence of labels like Spearmans Mill Cr and Robinson Mill Br suggests the historical importance of water-powered industry in this coastal plain environment, even as modern routes such as Old US 701 Hwy indicate the evolution of regional transport.
