2010 Map of Wade

About this map

The Cape Fear River and Black River converge in this corner of North Carolina, defining a landscape of wetlands and established small towns. Settlement patterns follow the higher ground between the river basins, where the communities of Wade, Godwin, and Falcon are connected by a network of rural roads such as Wade Stedman Rd and Colliers Chapel Church Rd. The importance of water management and crossing is evident in features like the Rhodes Pond Dam on the Black River and the various crossings along the South River, including Starling Bridge and Grahams Bridge.
