When a listing near Enola mentions a lot number, the Conway plat map is where those numbers come from. In this Conway guide: where to request a copy, plat versus tax map, and what to look for on the sheet.
Getting started with the Conway plat map
The Circuit Clerk files approved subdivision plats, indexed by subdivision name.
Opening the official parcel viewer
Lots and tracts near Holland are published on the Faulkner County ArcGIS parcel map, free to use and open without a login. For land near Mayflower, put in a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the viewer zooms to the match. For property near Wooster, write down the parcel ID before closing the panel; every records desk in the county will want it.
Getting answers from the right desk
Questions about value or the owner field for land near Enola belong with the County Assessor, since that office keeps the assessment data. Zoning, permits and septic questions near Vilonia need the planning or permitting office, and the answer depends on jurisdiction.
Conway, AR: the basics
Conway is part of Faulkner County, Arkansas, so its parcels are on the county's map. Conway is also the county seat, so deeds and plats are filed in town. With a lot near Mayflower, the municipality handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities for lots inside the boundary, but the county runs assessment and recording. Lots just outside the town limits out by Holland often answers to county rules rather than the town's.
The paper trail behind a parcel
When the details count, request the recorded deed through the Circuit Clerk; the parcel map near Greenbrier only summarizes it. For land near Wooster, have ready the book and page from the tax record and the lookup takes minutes.
When there's no plat
Acreage around Holland outside a subdivision may have no plat at all; the deed and any recorded survey describe it instead.
Field tips
Most viewers work in a phone browser, useful out on a road near Vilonia, though signal can drop in rural spots. A printout of the tract near Greenbrier helps when you meet an owner or agent.
Two different maps
The Faulkner County ArcGIS parcel map draws parcels for taxes, whereas the plat carries surveyed dimensions.
Legal descriptions in Arkansas
Arkansas is laid out under the Public Land Survey System, which means a tract near Enola is described by section, township and range. A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though corrections make some sections near Holland odd-sized. Copy the legal description from the record for the parcel near Holland before you request a deed or survey.
Land on the county line
Faulkner County borders Cleburne County, Conway County, Lonoke County, Perry County, and Pulaski County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. Acreage along the edge near Enola may show up across two assessors' files, so look at the neighboring map as well. Out toward Vilonia, our state page links each neighboring county map across Arkansas.
What a plat shows
On ground around Mayflower, the sheet usually includes lot and block numbers, dimensions and bearings, street rights-of-way and easements.
A quick look at the area
Conway serves as the county seat, where most land records are kept. You'll also find Mayflower, Wooster, Greenbrier, and Holland. Roughly 129,951 people call Faulkner County home (Census estimate, 2023) across some 647 square miles. Faulkner County dates to 1873, and some chains of title near Mayflower are long.
Replats and vacations
Lots near Enola can be combined or reconfigured by a replat, search the index for replats of the same subdivision; vacated streets or alleys also get recorded.
Before you lean on the lines
Tax maps are drawn for assessment, not surveyed, so the edge of a yard near Enola can sit a few yards off the line on screen. Near Greenbrier, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Online indexes and office visits
For property near Enola, many recorder offices offer an online index, otherwise call or visit with the reference; small fees are common.

Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey, especially for fences, setbacks, or boundary disputes.
