1956 Map of Oak Hill

About this map

The Linville River and the northern reaches of Lake James dominate the southwestern corner of this mid-century landscape, where the waters of the Catawba River flow through the foothills. Much of the western and northern terrain is defined by the Pisgah National Forest, a heavily wooded area where drainage from Miller Mtn feeds into a network of creeks including Upper Creek and Irish Creek. The Tablerock State Fish Hatchery stands as a notable institutional landmark near the forest boundary, reflecting the region's managed natural resources.
