About this map

Lake Gaston dominates this modern survey of the borderlands where Virginia meets North Carolina, marking a landscape defined by expansive waters and finger-like inlets. The inundation of the Roanoke River valley has created a complex shoreline that reshaped local geography, though the underlying terrain still follows the drainage patterns of Miles Cr, Sixpound Cr, and Hagood Cr. Small rural settlements like Barker Crossroads and Joyceville persist along the northern ridges, while Five Forks serves as a navigational landmark south of the lake. Roads such as Hwy 903 and Cannons Ferry Rd provide access to the waterfront developments and rural tracts that characterize the region today. The map clearly delineates the convergence of four counties—Mecklenburg and Brunswick in Virginia, and Warren and Brunswick in North Carolina—illustrating how these political boundaries intersect within the reservoir itself.
