Somewhere on Hwy. 55 between Angier and Coats in Harnett County, NC. Possibly 3574 NC-55, Angier, NC

Blalocks Service Station

This is just past the Old Stage Rd going North toward Angier. Mr Blalock lived in the house located behind the station. The Durham and Southern Railroad tracks were located behind the house. The station was demolished, but the house remains today.

Hi Marc! Thanks for sharing those details about the area in Harnett County. It sounds like there's some interesting history behind the demolished station and the house that still stands. Can you tell us more about the surrounding landscape during that time? Were there any notable landmarks or changes since then?
