2019 Map of Northwest Lumberton

About this map

Lumberton and its northern outskirts are defined by an intricate network of wetlands and river systems that have shaped Robeson County’s development. The Lumber River flows along the southern edge, while the interior is dominated by the sprawling Raft Swamp and its various tributaries like Richland Swamp and Mill Br. These water bodies are interspersed with established settlements such as Saddletree and Lowe, alongside residential pockets like Meadowbrook. Family history is deeply rooted in the landscape, evidenced by numerous burial grounds including Lowry Cem, Maynor Cem, and Oxendine Cem that dot the rural stretches between farms and woodlots. Significant landmarks like the Gardens of Faith memorial park and Circle T Lake provide community anchors within this coastal plain environment where agriculture and traditional settlements persist alongside the expanding urban footprint of the county seat.
