2019 Map of Lake Burlington

About this map

The Haw River serves as a central artery through this part of Alamance County, where the industrial legacy of textile production is visible in mill settlements like Glencoe and Carolina. These communities developed along the river's path, established near the water power required for nineteenth-century manufacturing. To the north, the terrain shifts toward the distinct elevation of Stony Creek Mtn, overlooking the winding reaches of Stony Creek and its tributary, Buttermilk Cr. The map captures a landscape transitioning between the urban edge of Burlington and Elon and the rural reaches of Clover Garden and Union Ridge. Local history is embedded in the road names, with routes like Geringer Mill Rd and Whitesell Brothers Rd tracing the movements of early families and local commerce across the county line into Caswell County.
