About this map

Windsor serves as a central hub on this map, situated where the Norfolk and Western railway and major roads intersect. The landscape is defined by its extensive water systems, featuring large reservoirs and winding wetlands like Prince Lake, Burnt Mills Lake, and Lake Cohoon. These bodies of water are fed by creeks and swamps, including Cohoon Creek and Eley Swamp, illustrating the transition of the coastal plain into managed water resources.

Social and educational landmarks are prominent, with both Tyler High Sch and Windsor High Sch located near the town center. Local history is preserved through numerous rural congregations and burial grounds, such as Holly Grove Ch, Providence Church, and Gravel Hill Cem. Infrastructure developments are evident through several long-distance pipelines and an aqueduct that traverse the region's diverse terrain of pocosin logs and millponds.
