1974 Map of New Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The B Everett Jordan Lake dominates the northwest corner of this map, representing a significant landscape transformation along the Chatham and Wake County line. In the center, New Hill serves as a local hub near the junction of major rail lines, including the Seaboard Coast Line and the Norfolk Southern railroad. The map documents a predominantly rural landscape punctuated by several country churches that anchored these communities, such as Olive Chapel, Christian Chapel, and Mt Zion Ch. South of the lake, the terrain transitions into a network of small watercourses like Beaver Creek and White Oak Creek. The inclusion of local landmarks like Cedar Rock and the small settlement of Bonsal provides a detailed look at the region's mid-century development before further suburban expansion changed the character of western Wake County.
