USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
The Tar River flows through the northeast corner of this Granville County landscape, a region defined by its rail-connected settlements and institutional grounds in the mid-1970s. The town of Stem sits centrally between the Southern and Seaboard Coast Line railroads, while the southern reaches show the expansion of Creedmoor and the industrial layout of the Murdoch Center (State Hospital) at Butner. These transit corridors shaped the local economy, connecting smaller hamlets like Shoofly, Hester, and Lyons.
