2010 Map of Lilesville

About this map

Lilesville sits at the heart of this Anson County landscape, where the terrestrial terrain meets the significant industrial and hydrological engineering of the early 21st century. The map reveals an area defined by extensive water management and resource extraction, most notably the complex of reservoirs and dams along the Pee Dee River. The eastern edge is dominated by the Blewett Falls Dam and Blewett Falls Lake Dam, while the interior shows the footprint of local industry through the B V Hedrick Sand and Gravel Lake and the W R Bonsai Tailings Reservoir Dam. These features illustrate how the natural flow of Smith Creek and McCoy Creek has been harnessed for regional utility and commerce. Small settlements like Gravelton, Pee Dee, and Cairo are linked by a network of state routes, such as NC-1825 and NC-1741, providing a clear view of the rural residential patterns surrounding Clark Mountain.
