About this map

Newcastle sits at the northern edge of this Weston County terrain, where the streets of the town give way to a network of drainage draws and seasonal creeks. The landscape is defined by its water-carved geography, with Cave Spring Canyon and Buck Pasture Draw cutting through the uplands while Cambria Cr and Little Oil Cr meet near the town center. Local history is anchored by the presence of Greenwood Cem and Old Ridge Cem, serving as quiet markers of the community's multi-generational growth.

Further south, the map reveals the transition toward more open country, dotted with family-named features like Morris Draw and Spencer Draw. The southeastern corner is dominated by the flow of Stockade Beaver Cr, while the central portion includes the residential development at Hill View Heights. This detailed survey traces the complex hydrography of the region, from the Howell Reservoir in the south to the northern reaches of Salt Cr, illustrating how the town of Newcastle is integrated into the surrounding prairie and canyon environment.
