2022 Map of Zion Grove

About this map

The community of Seven Lakes serves as a modern focal point in this portion of Moore County, characterized by a series of engineered water bodies including Seven Lakes Lake Number Two, Seven Lakes Lake Number Three, and Seven Lakes Lake Number Four. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and tributaries of several significant watercourses, such as the Little River, McLendons Cr, and Richland Cr, which carve through the terrain. Traditional rural settlements like Zion Grove, Harris, and Thomas Crossroads are linked by a network of historical transit routes, including Bensalem Church Rd and Bethlehem Church Rd. This survey documents a transition in land use, where established agricultural and timber landscapes represented by features like Fire Tower Rd meet the concentrated residential development surrounding the artificial lakes. Local history is anchored by markers such as Scott Cem, situated near the northern reaches of the quadrangle.
