"Every Picture Tells a Story ... Don't It:" Beaufort County, Part I | Eastern North Carolina Now

    We have a plethora of images of places and events in Beaufort County and this burgeoning file is growing. We will endeavor to show some of those images that have never been shown before any where on this, or any of our other sites when we discuss travel.
    Bath Creek is the first body of water one crosses from the west as one heads east into Bath, NC: Above. On Bonner Point at the confluence of Bath Creek and Back Creek is the Bonner House, which was built in 1835: Below.


    The rear of the Bonner House: Above. The front of St. Thomas Church: Below.

    Another look at the Bonner House at Bonner Point is exhibited once again: Above and below.

    The Palmer - Marsh House is a Georgian frame period home on Main Street, built in 1744: Above. Just a few miles east from Bath, NC is the Ferry Landing that fords the Pamlico River from the North Bank to the South Bank near the PCS mine: Below.

    Further west from the ferry landing is Goose Creek State Park on Upper Goose Creek and on the Pamlico River. It's a beautiful waterfront park with long wide sandy beaches, and many soft sandy trails under the foot of the happy hike. Before the high sandy beaches are the multiple patches of wetland: Above. The sandy beach, with its craggy shoreline: Below.

    Continuing along the craggy shoreline, we see the pines lost to the erosion of a rolling river: Above and below, and again below.
