Wrapped between the wings of Indian Neck, Carter’s Crossroads sits on a sand hill on the south side of Gates County, NC. According to some, it is the last holdout of civilization before the Chowan River.


This Carters Crossroad (CartersXRd) is the home of Ric Carter’s photographs and a few other things as time goes by. Ya’ll come back.
