1956 Map of Mount Gilead West

About this map

The Lake Pee Dee Tillery River corridor serves as a central geographic and economic anchor where the borders of Stanly, Montgomery, Anson, and Richmond counties converge. This mid-century landscape reflects the industrial integration of water power and rail transit, dominated by the Norwood Dam and its associated Hydroelectric Plant. The engineering of the river valley is complemented by the Winston-Salem Southbound and Southern railroads, which facilitated movement between the growing towns of Norwood and Mount Gilead.
