About this map

The Pee Dee River carves a winding path through this portion of North Carolina, marking a landscape defined by its historic river crossings and small inland communities. The presence of Old Smith Ferry and Old Stanback Ferry points to an era of river-based transport and regional connectivity that predated modern bridge networks. These ferry sites are situated near the settlements of Mangum and Ingram, which serves as a central hub for several rural routes such as NC-1702 and NC-1703.

To the south, the topography rises toward Ingram Mountain, overlooking a complex hydrography of creeks including Savannah Cr and Buffalo Cr. The southeastern corner is dominated by the widening river waters at Petty Gulf and the marshy environment of the Grassy Islands. This 2013 survey provides a detailed view of the rural infrastructure and natural drainage patterns that have shaped the development of Anson County.
