United Statee Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Sheet Ocracoke Historic District, Hyde County Section number ? Rage Description: Ocracoke is a sixteen mile long island, ranging from one-half mile wide to two miles wide at the village near its southern extremity, located between Hatteras and Portsmouth Islands on the North Carolina Outer Banks. It is thirty-four miles across Pamlico Sound from the Hyde County mainland, and is part of Hyde County. It is the only major island with a permanent population which has not been connected to the mainland by a bridge. It is accessible to the pub­ lic by means of ferry from Hatteras Island to the north, or ferries from Swan Quarter and Cedar Island on the mainland. There is a small air field on the is­ land for private plane access. Ocracoke village is the only portion of the island that has been inhabited in recent years, because the rest of the island was ac­ quired by the National Park Service as part of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Park between 1937 and ca. 1953. 1 The entire island is accessible by Highway 12, built between 1957-1959. Prior to this the island had only dirt roads, and the remote areas away from the village were sparsely settled with small farms and hunting cabins. Ocracoke village is on the west, sound side of the island, at the mouth of Cock­ le Creek which was dredged first in the 1930s and again during World War II to create a circular harbor, known as Silver Lake, about one-quarter mile in diameter. The mouth into Pamlico Sound is about 200 feet wide, just the width of the ferry channel. The year-round population of the village is 650, aug­ mented considerably from late spring to early fall with visitors. The village is primarily residential, with a small commercial center on Silver Lake, the Coast Guard Station at the harbor mouth, the 1823 cone-shaped white lighthouse south of the harbor (toward Ocracoke Inlet at the south end of the island, which was the access to Pamlico Sound in earlier days) and a small number of relatively small scale motels and condominiums built around the harbor. Although small, the village has historically been divided into two geographic areas and corresponding social groups. The "Creekers" live "around Creek" or "Up Trent" on the northeast side of Silver Lake, above old Cockle Creek; the "Pointers" live "Down point" near Springers Point, southwest of Silver Lake. For most of the village's history, each section has had its own church. High­ way 12 is the general dividing line between the two sections. The oldest docu­ mented houses are "around Creek," while the 1823 lighthouse is "Down Point." The historic district contains 391 resources: 232 contributing buildings, 15 con­ tributing cemeteries, 4 contributing structures (the lighthouse and three resource networks: the cisterns, the picket fences, and the docks), and 139 noncontributing buildings and 1 noncontributing structure (pool and cabana, NH Porw 104004 OMf Aflprov* No. »0l+00f I Unlttd States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Sheet Ocracoke Historic District, Hyde County Section number 7 Page #5b), The contributing resources were built between 1823 and 1959. A total of 85 of these are less than fifty years old, built in the 1941-1959 period. Forty-six of these are primary buildings, 38 of them are outbuildings, and one is the Brit­ ish Cemetery (#61). Altogether, 64% of the resources are pre-1959 and are contributing. The district spreads out around Silver Lake, with an irregular outer boundary drawn to include the legal lot lines of contributing buildings and to ex­ clude recent, noncontributing buildings.
