2017 Map of Denton

About this map

Denton and Martell serve as the primary hubs in this section of Lancaster County, where the landscape is defined by the managed drainage of the Salt Creek watershed. The distribution of numerous reservoirs, including Bluestem Lake, Yankee Hill Lake, and Brandt Reservoir, alongside smaller catchments like Salt Cr Reservoir 16-A, illustrates the extensive water management infrastructure surrounding these rural communities. For local historians and genealogists, the map preserves the locations of Wesley Chapel Cem and Highland Cem, which remain as fixed points in an area largely dedicated to agriculture and aviation, as seen at the Denton Airfield. A network of rural section-line roads, such as W Rokeby Rd and W Wittstruck Rd, provides access to the winding courses of Wittstruck Cr and Cardwell Br as they cut through the township boundaries of T9N and T8N.
