About this map

Lancaster serves as the focal point of this 2014 survey, where the convergence of Us-521 and SC-200 anchors a landscape blending urban growth with rural South Carolina crossroads. The town’s history is preserved at the Old Presbyterian Cem and West Side Cem, while modern institutional footprints are established by the Univ of South Carolina-Lancaster campus. The L & C RR line cuts through the terrain, tracing an industrial path through residential areas like Cedar Terrace and Greenbriar.

Along the western edge, the Catawba River flows past Courtney Island and Johnson Ford, marking the boundary between Lancaster and Chester Counties. Further south, the map details a series of distinct local junctions such as Crocketts Crossroad and Jones Crossroads. These small settlements, alongside the waters of the Lancaster Reservoir and Fishing Creek Reservoir, illustrate the transition from the structured street grid of the county seat to the sprawling orchard lands and residential developments like Sherwood Acres and Bell Town.
