About this map

The borderlands of Cumberland Co Powhatan Co are defined by a network of winding waterways and rural crossroads during the late 1960s. Small community clusters such as Trenholm, Hatchers, and Belona anchor the landscape, which is marked by numerous country churches including Mt Moriah Ch and Little Zion Ch. The drainage patterns of Muddy Creek and Deep Creek influence the local topography, creating pockets of marshland like Maple Swamp and secluded water bodies such as Redford Pond.

In the eastern portion of the map, the Powhatan State Wildlife Management Area preserves a significant tract of land featuring Bullhead Pond and Sunfish Pond. This survey captures the transition of Virginia's Piedmont region as traditional agricultural settlements maintained their character alongside modern infrastructure, evidenced by the Pipeline corridor cutting across the northern reaches and the established intersections at Smiths Crossroads.
