About this map

Munford and its surrounding rural landscapes in Calhoun and Talladega counties are defined by the convergence of industrial military activity and protected woodlands. The sprawling Anniston Army Depot dominates the northwestern corner near Bynum, while the southeastern portion of the map transitions into the dense reaches of the Talladega National Forest. The hydrological network is anchored by Choccolocco Creek, which winds through a valley populated by several small settlements and community landmarks, including Jenifer and the State Fish Hatchery.

Social and educational history is preserved through numerous school and church sites that dot the countryside. Labels such as Sweet Home Sch, Hillside Sch, and Halls Grove Ch indicate the historical locations of local gathering places near the Oxford and Hobson City borders. This map reflects a landscape where infrastructure like the Pumping Sta at Coldwater Spring meets the natural elevations of Coldwater Mountain.
