2019 Map of Northeast Eden

About this map

The Dan River and Smith River confluence defines the industrial and residential landscape of Eden, North Carolina, as it transitions northward across the state line into Henry and Pittsylvania Counties, Virginia. This 2019 survey captures the developed Central Area and residential clusters of Meadow Summit, set against a backdrop of historic rural crossroad communities. To the north, the terrain rises into the foothills of the Blue Ridge, marked by Stills Mtn and Boyd Mtn. Local history is preserved in several family and community burial grounds, including Starling Cem, Blue Creek Cem, and Dan View Cem. The map illustrates a complex network of colonial-era routes and modern connectors, such as Irisburg Rd and Cascade Rd, which link the larger manufacturing hub of Eden with outlying settlements like Starlings Crossroads and Aiken Summit. The prominence of Leaksville Junction serves as a reminder of the area's deep-rooted textile and rail heritage.
