About this map

The Trent River meanders across this landscape, serving as a defining geographical feature that separates the Croatan National Forest to the south from the developing residential areas and historic crossroads to the north. Settlement patterns here are clearly influenced by the river and its numerous tributaries, including Island Creek, Beaver Br, and Raccoon Cr. The town of Pollocksville sits near the river's edge, anchored by the Pollocksville Cem and local road networks like Co RD 1331.

Modern residential growth is evident in communities such as River Bend and Trent Woods, which contrast with more established agricultural and wooded zones like Tenmile Fork and Oak Grove. To the west, the Great Dover Swamp provides a glimpse into the primary natural terrain of the Coastal Plain. The map also documents important local landmarks such as the Canaan Air Base near Rhems, showing how military and aviation infrastructure has integrated into this part of North Carolina.
