About this map

The town of Westminster serves as a central hub in this Oconee County landscape, where the Westminster Post Office and nearby Eastminster mark the intersection of several key regional routes. The area is defined by a dense network of water management and rural settlements, including Brock, Clearmont, and Jason. Significant infrastructure is present along the watercourses, notably the Duke Power Dam and various control structures like the Coneross Creek WCD Dam Number Eight.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the numerous burial grounds documented, from Richland Cemetery and Pleasant Hill Cemetery to the more modern Oconee Memorial Gardens. The railway's influence is still visible through the presence of Wrights Siding near Avondale. The northern reaches are shaped by the Negro Fork Reservoir and the Walhalla Filtration Point, reflecting the essential water infrastructure supporting the surrounding communities of Phinney and Five Points.
