2013 Map of Polkton

About this map

Polkton anchors the southern portion of this Anson County landscape, situated where the corridor of Old US Hwy 74 meets several local routes. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the meandering Lanes Cr and the extensive Brown Cr drainage system. Small named settlements like Burnsville, Kikers, and Sugar Town dot the rural interior, connected by roads that frequently take their names from local landmarks and congregations, such as Hopewell Church Rd and Cedar Grove Church Rd. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the region, where legacy crossroads like Griffins Crossroads remain central to the local geography. Significant local industry and land use are evidenced by features such as High Rock Crusher Rd and the D and J Farms Lake, highlighting the intersection of agriculture and transit in the North Carolina piedmont.
