1957 Map of Bedminster

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Haycock Mtn stands as a prominent landmark in the northern reach of this Bucks County landscape, overlooking the winding path of Tohickon Creek. The area is defined by a dense network of small colonial-era settlements and crossroads, including Bedminster, Pipersville, and Kellers Church. This 1950s documentation, with later revisions, shows a rural community transitioning as early infrastructure like a major Pipeline began to cross the traditional farmsteads and woodlots. Local history and genealogy interest is found in the scattered rural institutions such as the Trish Meeting House and the Plumstead Christian Day Sch. The map reveals how the terrain, characterized by features like Clay Ridge, dictated the placement of early routes such as Dark Hollow Road and Hellers Church Road, which still follow the contours of the numerous runs and creeks that feed into the Perkiomen and Delaware watersheds.
