2019 Map of Woodlawn

About this map

Hillsville and the surrounding Carroll County countryside are defined by a complex network of ridges and watercourses, including the notable peaks of Walker Knob and Chisel Knob. This area of Southwest Virginia showcases a legacy of family and community identity through its numerous burial grounds, such as Woodlawn Cem, Gardner Cem, and the Williams-Jenkins Cem. Transportation routes like State Rte 781 and Pipers Gap Rd wind through the hills, connecting smaller settlements like Pipers Gap and Higgins Crossroads. In the northern section, the Thomas L Fells Memorial Bridge crosses a tributary near Woodlawn, while the southern reaches are bordered by the iconic Blue Ridge Parkway. The landscape is etched by various branches of Crooked Creek, which provides drainage for the many knobs and hollows that characterize this portion of the Blue Ridge plateau.
