2016 Map of Winstead Crossroads

About this map

The Wilson northern suburbs and surrounding rural townships meet the Tar River in this 2016 survey of the Nash and Wilson County line. The landscape is defined by the significant hydrology of the Coastal Plain, where Toisnot Swamp and Bloomery Swamp drain southward toward the city center. Key infrastructure supporting the regional economy is visible, including the Wilson Industrial Air Center and the Rocky Mount-Wilson Regional Airport located on the northeastern edge. Older rural nodes such as Winstead Crossroads, Cliftonville, and Dunn Crossroads persist amidst modern residential expansion. Notable local landmarks like Finch Mill and the Evergreen Memorial Gardens offer specific points of interest for local researchers, while the Tar River Reservoir and Lake Wilson serve as major water features in the northern reach of the quadrangle.
