About this map

Albemarle Sound dominates the northern horizon of this coastal landscape, where the land meets the water at Leonards Point and Laurel Point. The interior is characterized by an intricate network of drainage and transport, defined by features like Big Swamp and Indian Swamp. This 2022 survey documents the persistent settlement patterns of Washington County, centered around the town of Creswell and the community of Scuppernong.

Further north, the rural layout of Pea Ridge and Davenport Forks reveals a landscape shaped by both nature and human industry, with numerous family-named roads and landings such as Newberry Lndg and Deep Creek Lndg providing access to the wetlands. Waterways like Straight Cr, Bull Cr, and Deep Cr thread through the terrain toward Bull Bay, illustrating the enduring relationship between these eastern North Carolina communities and their maritime environment.
