About this map

Little Tallapoosa River carves a deep, serpentine path through the landscape of eastern Alabama in this mid-1970s orthophotograph. The settlement at Newell serves as a central point in a region defined by a patchwork of small-scale agriculture and dense timberland. The orthophoto format, produced in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, reveals the specific land-use patterns of the era, from the winding rural routes connecting Morrison Crossroads to the clearing of fields and the preservation of riparian buffers along the river bends. This aerial perspective provides a literal view of the rural infrastructure and homestead placement near Woodland before modern development patterns altered the traditional agricultural footprint of the county.
