About this map

Angola Swamp dominates this Pender County landscape, where the vast wetlands of the Angola Bay Game Land are punctuated by subtle topographical rises like Blue Ridge and Long Straw Ridge. The settlement of Pin Hook sits near the northern boundary, while community life is anchored by rural landmarks such as Oak Grove Ch and Shelter Neck Ch. A notable utilitarian feature is the Blue Ridge Airfield, a remote strip situated on a narrow ridge within the swamp. The infrastructure of the era is represented by the straight path of Convict Road, which cuts across the marshy terrain toward the southern waters of Mill Pond. This survey illustrates the 1970s balance between specialized land use and the natural drainage patterns of the Carolina coastal plain.
