1974 Map of New Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

B Everett Jordan Lake dominates the western portion of this landscape, its newly formed shoreline reaching into the drainage basins of Beaver Creek and White Oak Creek. This 1970s survey captures the area during a period of significant environmental transition as the reservoir waters began to reshape the local topography. Away from the water, the settlement pattern is defined by the intersections of the Norfolk Southern and Seaboard Coast Line railroads, which once supported rural communities like New Hill, Bonsal, and Friendship. Local history is deeply rooted in the rural road network, where community hubs are marked by Olive Chapel, Christian Chapel, and the Pleasant Plains Sch. Purple revisions highlight emerging land use changes, including the development of a pipeline and a Landing Strip, signaling the modernization of this section of Wake and Chatham counties.
