1949 Map of West End

About this map

West End serves as a primary rail hub along the Norfolk Southern line in the Moore County countryside, surrounded by established community landmarks and sprawling conservation areas. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Drowning Creek and Sandy Run, with the Sandhills Game Land occupying a significant portion of the southern territory. Local life is anchored by several rural spiritual centers, including Beulah Hill Ch and McDonalds Chapel, while the settlement of Jackson Springs sits further west among the ridges. A notable 1980s-era update to this mid-century survey indicates the planned creation of Arman Lake, showing purple-hatched areas destined to be submerged as water management transformed the local topography. This overlay provides a specific view of the transition from a traditional creek-fed basin to a landscape shaped by planned reservoirs.
