2016 Map of Pinetops

About this map

Pinetops and Macclesfield anchor this portion of the Coastal Plain, where a network of agriculture and local industry is defined by the winding paths of Town Creek and Bynums Mill Run. The landscape is dotted with long-established rural hubs like Saint Lewis, Lancaster, and Wiggins Crossroads, connected by a dense web of farm-to-market roads. Religious and community life is centered at Faith Baptist Church and McKendree Church. The drainage patterns, including Gokey Swamp and Beaverdam Branch, reflect the low-lying topography that has historically shaped the placement of tobacco and cotton fields. Tracing family-named roads such as Martin Sasser Drive and Jenkins Farm Road provides a view into the landownership and genealogy of this part of Edgecombe County.
