1980 Map of Spicer Bay

About this map

Thomas Landing sits at the edge of a complex coastal landscape where the mainland meets the intricate waterways of the Intracoastal region in the early 1980s. This color infrared orthophotoquad reveals the narrow barrier island environment of Ashe Island, which separates the mainland from the Atlantic Ocean. The topography is dominated by the tidal waters of Stump Sound, Spicer Bay, and Everett Bay, illustrating the delicate balance of the Onslow County shoreline before significant modern development. The map provides a clear look at the primitive road tracks and shoreline vegetation as they existed during this specific aerial survey, capturing the interface of land and sea in a region defined by its maritime geography.
