2011 Map of Lambrook

About this map

Lambrook serves as a central point in this alluvial landscape of southern Phillips County, where the settlement patterns follow a network of bayous and drainage channels typical of the Arkansas Delta. The terrain is defined by its complex hydrology, featuring numerous named waterways such as Jessie Slough, Gauzley Bayou, and Yellow Bank Bayou. These natural features, along with engineered routes like Cypress Ditch, suggest a landscape deeply tied to water management and agriculture. Smaller local hubs including Ratio, Mary Spur, and Countiss are connected by a grid of county roads, showing the dispersed nature of rural life in this region during the early 21st century. The map provides a clear look at how land is partitioned around the winding paths of Humphrey Slough and Cottonwood Slough, offering insights for those studying the intersection of natural drainage and modern rural infrastructure.
