2010 Map of Terrell North

About this map

The Walter C Porter Farm stands as a significant landmark in this landscape north of Terrell, where rural heritage meets the expanding outskirts of North Texas. The area is defined by its complex water management, featuring numerous small reservoirs and infrastructure like the Tawakoni Balancing Reservoir Levee and Club Lake. Smaller settlements such as Colquitt and Chisholm are connected by a network of farm-to-market roads and county lanes, illustrating the persistent agricultural roots of the region even as aviation features like Airpark East and Bishop Field appear. Local history is anchored at sites like Dry Creek Cemetery and Forest Lawn Cemetery, while numerous Soil Conservation Service dams, including Soil Conservation Service Site 16 Dam, reveal the intensive land-use efforts to control drainage into local tributaries like Bachelor Creek and Berry Creek.
