About this map

The Banister River and Stinking River converge in this section of Pittsylvania County, shaping a landscape defined by winding watercourses and a dense network of secondary roads. Small, established communities like Mount Airy and Riceville serve as central points in a region dominated by agricultural tracts and timberland. The presence of routes such as Hickeys Rd and Deer Track Farm Rd reflects the rural development patterns of Southside Virginia, where family farms and small settlements have persisted over generations.

Boundaries with Halifax County appear to the east, while drainage from Straightstone Cr and Maggotty Cr flows through the northern reaches. The area is characterized by numerous named branches and creeks, including Blacks Cr and Allen Cr, which feed into the larger river systems. This 2019 survey documents the contemporary rural infrastructure of these long-standing communities, from Hermosa to the southern hamlet of Markham.
