About this map

Stony Creek and the Haw River define the water-rich geography of this region north of Burlington, where several significant water management structures are located. The landscape is marked by the presence of Lake Burlington and the Stony Creek Reservoir, with detailed engineering features such as the Lake Burlington Sediment Pool Number One Dam and the Old Stony Creek Dam visible. These reservoirs and dams indicate the complex irrigation and water supply systems established to support the growing residential communities.

Residential developments like British Acres, Green Acres, and Birchwood are interspersed with established rural crossroads like Clover Garden and Union Ridge. The village of Glencoe sits near the river, reflecting the area's transition from historical river-based industry to modern suburban neighborhoods. Numerous local family roads, including Whitesell Brothers Rd and Hassell Corbett Rd, provide essential context for genealogists tracing property lines and local family histories.
