1949 Map of Manchester

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Manchester and the surrounding Walker County countryside are defined by the winding course of Blackwater Creek and the expansion of surface mining in the mid-20th century. Large Strip Mine excavations, often indicated by purple revisions from the late 1970s, intersect with older rural landmarks like Thatch Jr High Sch and Lamons Chapel. The landscape is a mix of industry and tradition, where the Southern railroad serves the community at Gamble Sta, and timber stands are managed within the southern reaches of the Bankhead National Forest.
