2010 Map of Putnam

About this map

Glendon and Putnam anchor this rural Moore County landscape where the Deep River curves along the northern boundary. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including McLendons Creek, Richland Creek, and Lick Creek, which carve through the countryside. The road network reflects a history of family landholdings and community centers, with labels like Kelly Plantation Rd, Putnam Church Rd, and Friendship Church Rd marking the locations of local gathering places and historical estates. In the western portion of the map, the settlement of Parkwood sits near the headwaters of Parkwood Branch, illustrating the typical Piedmont pattern of small hamlets situated between primary drainage basins. This 2010 survey provides a detailed view of the transition from wooded creek bottoms to established rural homesteads.
