2011 Map of Newport NE

About this map

The rolling plains of Rock County are defined by a network of drainage systems and isolated landmarks in this 2011 survey. The landscape is primarily shaped by the meandering courses of Oak Creek and Ash Creek, which carve through the prairie terrain. Human presence is sparse, centered around essential communal locations that serve the surrounding agricultural community. Kirkwood Cemetery stands as a quiet record of local heritage in the northern portion of the map, while the Lane School site reflects the traditional rural education structure of the Nebraska countryside. The survey captures a moment in time where the section lines of the Public Land Survey System dictate the road network, framing a vista of open land and small prairie ponds.
