About this map

Ashton anchors the northern boundary of this Sherman County landscape, where the residential grid meets the surrounding agricultural section lines. The village is organized around streets like Center Ave and W Carleton St, serving as a localized hub within a network of section-line roads such as Rockville Ave and 781 Rd. To the south, the terrain descends toward the Middle Loup River, which carves a wide valley floor through the township.

Drainage systems define the rural character of the area, with several waterways like Oak Cr, Deer Cr, and Rock Cr cutting through the loess hills. Water management for local use is evident at the Gregg Reservoir in the western reaches. For those researching local heritage, the Union Cem is a significant landmark located southeast of the main settlement, preserved amidst the extensive fields of the Nebraska plains.
