About this map

The Pamunkey River winds through this Tidewater landscape, defining a network of wetlands and river landings that have shaped local transport for centuries. Near the riverbanks, notable estates and landings like White House, Liberty Hall, and Lacey Landing stand alongside river bars such as Ringer Bar and Gregory Bar. The map reveals a transition from these water-dependent sites to the inland settlements of Tunstall and Tallysville, connected by historic routes like Old Church Rd and Old River Rd.

Industry and aviation also mark the terrain, from the legacy of milling sites at Putneys Mill and Crumps Mill to the modern presence of the New Kent County Airport. The hydrologic complexity is evident in the sprawling Saint Peters Swamp and numerous creeks such as Macon Creek and Polkwest Creek, illustrating how the low-lying geography of New Kent County continues to influence land use and development.
