1975 Map of Piedmont SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Coleman Lake sits at the heart of this mid-1970s orthophoto map, which provides a photographic look at the forested terrain of northern Cleburne County. The settlement patterns in this area are defined by small crossroads and linear developments along narrow ridge-top roads, a characteristic of the Appalachian foothills. This aerial-based survey, produced in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, documents the rural landscape before more recent reforestation and development altered the visibility of historical structures. The small community of Grantley is visible in the north, while the area around Liberty Hill showcases the winding road networks typical of this wooded region. Researchers can observe the exact density of timber and the footprint of small agricultural clearings that supported these local communities during the mid-twentieth century.
