2013 Map of Nettleridge

About this map

Gilbert Mill and Nettleridge anchor this rural landscape along the Virginia and North Carolina border, where the terrain is defined by the winding course of the S Mayo River. The area is characterized by a dense network of small waterways, including Russell Cr, Spoon Cr, and Snow Cr, which have historically dictated the placement of homesteads and local commerce. Aviation footprints are visible through Collins Airport and Moorefield's Airstrip, reflecting the importance of private air travel in this part of the Piedmont. Many roads follow the traditional paths of family-named lanes and farm-to-market routes, such as Vias Orchard Rd and New Hope Church Rd, connecting small hubs like Moorefield Store and Oak Ridge. This survey provides a clear view of the modern rural interface, where large agricultural tracts meet local commercial points.
