About this map

The small settlement of London serves as the focal point for this landscape along the Nodaway and Atchison County border. This region is defined by a sophisticated system of water management and drainage, anchored by the extensive Hoover Frankum Watershed project. Numerous reservoirs, including Hoover Frankum Watershed A-11 and E 20 Reservoir, are distributed across the terrain to manage the flow of the East Fork Little Tarkio Creek and its tributaries like Headrick Branch.

Genealogists and local historians will find the London Cemetery particularly notable, as it remains a physical landmark of the community's heritage in an area largely characterized by agricultural holdings and local routes such as Y Ave and Apollo TRL. The map illustrates the 2012 layout of several local bodies of water, including Nodaway C-20 Lake and Linville Lake, which provide a detailed look at the rural hydrology of northwestern Missouri.
