2013 Map of Scranton

About this map

Germantown and Scranton anchor this Hyde County coastal survey, where the terrestrial landscape of eastern North Carolina gives way to the intricate shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean. The map reveals a region defined by its relationship with the water, showing a network of points and bays such as Spencer Point, Ranger Point, and Striking Bay. Inland, the settlement pattern follows historical corridors like Sladesville-Credle Rd, connecting small communities such as Sladesville and Beulah. Notable landmarks include Stave Landing and Hodges Farm Airport, reflecting both the traditional maritime access points and more modern infrastructure. The presence of Bell Island Recreation Area and numerous shoals like Swan Point Shoal highlight the area's dual character as a site of coastal navigation and low-lying wetlands.
