How to Use This Newell, West Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Newell, West Virginia. 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 West Virginia 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 Newell.

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 Newell, West Virginia

Newell is a locality in Hancock County, West Virginia, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,203. The population density is 568.5 people per km². Newell is located at 40.6184°N, 80.6042°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 26050.

Newell sits where the land folds into the deep basin of Laurel Hollow, a place defined by the steady, persistent carve of Muchmores Run as it marks the earth toward the riverbed. It lies 13.8 miles north of Weirton, WV (from Weirton, WV: bearing 357°T), and is situated 4.1 miles south-southwest of Saint Clair Township. The terrain here rises in stubborn, layered swells, a landscape of dense woodland and sudden, steep inclines that hold the damp, cooling breath of the evening long after the sun has retreated behind the jagged silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains far to the east. At the edge of the descent, the quiet expanse of Lake Marwin catches the dimming light, its surface a mirror of gray glass framed by the encroaching timber. Laurel Hollow Park occupies the center of this rugged geography, providing a modest clearing where the stillness of the valley floor meets the tangled, wild growth of the surrounding slopes.

Newell maintains a character forged in the heat of the kiln and the grit of the river valley, echoing a long history of ceramic production that once defined the rhythm of the daily whistle. The economy remains tethered to the enduring strength of industrial craft, a persistence that permeates the local habit of work and the stoic temperament of those who walk these streets. Beyond the factory walls, the pace of life follows the slow, deliberate turning of the seasons, with the occasional traveler venturing out to seek the quietude of the woods or the distant promise of the Gretchens Lock Trail. There is a perceptible dignity in the way the local life adheres to the geography, a quiet resilience that persists in the shadow of the hills and the steady, unceasing flow of the local run.

About This Newell Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Newell, West Virginia. Coordinates: 40.618398, -80.604238. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Newell includes the ZIP code (26050), telephone area code (304), county seat of Hancock County (New Cumberland), and school district assignment (Hancock County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
