The low-lying wetlands of The Glades and Bear Swamp dominate this coastal reach of Cumberland County, where the land fragmentizes into a maze of tidal guts and points. Small upland settlements like Cedarville, Newport, and Lummistown occupy the higher ground, often centered around burial grounds such as the Old Stone Church Cem and Brick Church Cem. The interaction between the interior drainage of Cedar Creek and the Delaware Bay is visible through the intricate shoreline of Sayres Neck and Jones Island. Along the coast, established landing spots and camps like Gandys Beach and Money Island suggest a long-standing reliance on the bay's resources. Further inland, specialized landmarks like Dave's Aerodrome and the impoundment at Shaws Mill Pond indicate a landscape shaped by both local industry and modern recreation.
