2011 Map of Delta

About this map

The Pennsylvania-Maryland border defines the character of this landscape, where the towns of Delta and Cardiff sit directly adjacent to one another across the state line. This area reflects a deep history of quarrying, evident by the Funkhouse Quarry and various roads named for the industry, such as Quarry Rd and Slate Ridge Rd. The northern portion of the map is dominated by these industrial roots and small settlements like West Bangor and Ailston, while the southern Maryland side transitions into a more rural, camp-heavy environment. Large recreational and institutional tracts like the Broad Creek Memorial Scout Camp and several smaller camps such as Camp Saffran and Camp Oest cluster near Broad Creek. Numerous local burying grounds, including Slate Ridge Cemetery and Zion Cemetery, provide significant points of interest for those tracing family lineages in this border region.
