2013 Map of Buckingham

About this map

Buckingham and its surrounding hamlets illustrate a landscape of enduring village centers and evolving suburban development in central Bucks County. This survey reveals the dense network of crossroads settlements that have historically defined the region, including Furlong, Lahaska, and Wycombe. The terrain is marked by the prominent ridge of Buckingham Mountain and its smaller counterpart, Little Buckingham Mountain, which influence the drainage patterns of local waterways like Lahaska Cr and Pidcock Cr. Toward the south, the Neshaminy Cr meanders past Bridge Valley and Jamison, while the eastern portion of the map shows the more open agricultural reaches around Pineville. Local history is embedded in the numerous small settlements such as Mozart, Mechanicsville, and Little Italy, each reflecting the tight-knit community clusters typical of this part of Pennsylvania.
