About this map

Lizard Lick and Eagle Rock anchor the eastern landscape of this Wake County survey, where the suburban expansion of Raleigh and Knightdale meets a network of established creeks and local landmarks. The map documents a complex water system including the Crabtree Cr Water Shed, Beaverdam Creek, and the distinctive Buffalo Creek Cypress Swamp. Small aviation interests are represented by the Raleigh East Airport, situated near the junction of Knightdale Blvd and the Wendell Falls Pkwy.

Transportation corridors like the Norfolk Southern railroad and historic routes such as Old Tarboro Rd illustrate the area's development. Local history is preserved in named features like Six Forks Crossroads, Riley Hill, and several family-named water bodies including C N Robertson Pond and Hatchs Pond. Residential growth is evident through modern recreational additions like the Turtle Shell #2 Trail and School Trail.
