1972 Map of Middletown

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Middletown and the surrounding Shenandoah Valley landscape appear in striking detail in this 1972 orthophotograph. This specialized survey by the Geological Survey and Commonwealth of Virginia uses aerial imagery to show the actual footprint of farms, woodlots, and road networks as they existed in the early 1970s. The winding course of Cedar Creek carves a deep path through the terrain, serving as a prominent geographical marker between Lebanon Church and the more concentrated residential and commercial blocks of the town. This orthophoto provides a precise visual record of land use and development patterns, capturing the density of the settlement and the expansive agricultural fields that define the region's character during this era.
