1954 Map of Lake Drummond

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Lake Drummond dominates this mid-century landscape, surrounded by the dense marshlands of the Dismal Swamp at the border of Virginia and North Carolina. The map illustrates a complex network of man-made hydrology designed to navigate and drain this unique environment, including the Jericho Ditch, Portsmouth Ditch, and the prominent Feeder Ditch which connects the central lake to the eastern transit corridors. Along the eastern edge, the Intracoastal Waterway follows the route of the Dismal Swamp Canal, a vital artery for regional commerce and travel.
