2013 Map of Kelford

About this map

Kelford and Roxobel anchor this Bertie County landscape, positioned along a transportation corridor that bridges the headwaters of the Cashie River. The area is defined by its low-lying hydrology, where Wahtom Swamp and Ahoskie Cr drain the agricultural flats. This survey reveals a traditional North Carolina rural structure, with small-town street grids like Cemetery St and Front St giving way to specialized agricultural and research sites, such as those found along Research Farm Ln. The local road network, including Tyler School Rd and Mill Branch Church Rd, points to the community's historical centers of education and worship. Water features like Mill Br and Sandy Run illustrate the intricate drainage patterns that have historically shaped the placement of farmsteads and timber tracts across this coastal plain region.
