The Great Dismal Swamp dominates the northern reaches of this coastal plain landscape, where a sophisticated network of canals and ditches manages the hydrology of the low-lying terrain. Features such as Bull-Boulevard Ditch, Weyerhaeuser Ditch, and the Newland Drainage Canal illustrate the long history of land reclamation and timber management in this region. The Pasquotank River winds through the swampy interior, defining the boundary between Pasquotank and Camden counties.
