1971 Map of Walnut Cove

About this map

The Dan River winds through the northeastern corner of this landscape, while the lower half of the quadrangle is defined by the convergence of rail and water near the Stokes and Forsyth county line. The Southern and Norfolk and Western railroads intersect at Walnut Cove, highlighting its role as a regional transportation hub. Further west, the settlement of Germanton sits near the banks of Town Fork Creek, anchoring an area dotted with small rural communities like Brook Cove and Rosebud.
