How to Use This Barstow, Maryland Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Barstow, Maryland. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Maryland or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Barstow.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Barstow, Maryland

Barstow is a locality in Calvert County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 18.0 people per km². Barstow is located at 38.5254°N, 76.6161°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 20678, 20610.

Barstow emerges from the quiet, undulating landscape of the Maryland interior as a place defined by the slow, steady movement of the Schoolhouse Branch, which carves its way through the local terrain. It lies 12.6 miles north of Hollywood, MD (from Hollywood, MD: bearing 349°T), and is situated 6.9 miles west-northwest of Saint Leonard. The earth here holds a heavy, dark quality, supporting dense stands of timber and fields that stretch toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Edgars Ridge on the horizon. Sunlight at dusk catches the moisture clinging to the low-lying grasses, turning the fields into a muted palette of amber and slate. Though the nearest reaches of Cedarville State Forest lie twelve miles to the west and the basin of Devils Nest sits at a similar remove, Barstow maintains a singular, grounded identity shaped by the inland geography and the persistent, quiet flow of its primary waterway.

Barstow serves as a central anchor for the local agricultural life, with the Calvert County Fairgrounds acting as the primary venue for community gatherings and the display of regional industry. The rhythm of daily life here remains tethered to the seasonal cycles of the land, far removed from the bustle of the distant cities. Families and neighbors converge where the gravel roads meet the fairgrounds, maintaining a pace of life that values the preservation of old habits and the simple necessity of hard work. History is not found in grand monuments but in the persistent cultivation of the soil and the way the community organizes itself around the shared spaces that have defined Barstow for generations.
