About this map

Westmoreland serves as the primary hub in this portion of Pottawatomie County, situated at the intersection of local routes like Bigelow Rd and Main St. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses and elevation changes, including Mt Ephraim and the prominent Deep Hollow to the east. The distribution of burial sites throughout the township, such as Saint Columkilles Cem near Blaine and Huff Cem further south, provides a clear spatial record of early settlement patterns and family plots.

Water sources like Scott Spring and Wilson Cr dictate the layout of rural access roads, including Bucksnort Rd and Roberts Run Rd. To the north, the small community of Blaine marks the upper reaches of the map, while Moodyville Cem indicates the location of previous community centers. This topography reflects a late 2010s view of the Kansas Flint Hills region, where agricultural land use is interwoven with the steep drainages of Rock Cr and Bucksnort Cr.
