The Nanticoke River flows south through this interior section of the Delmarva Peninsula Eastern Shore, forming a natural corridor for a series of small settlements and agricultural hubs. The landscape is defined by a dense network of branches and creeks, such as Toms Dam Br and Grubby Neck Br, which feed into the river system. Longstanding communities like Greenwood and Farmington anchor the region, while smaller locales like Cocked Hat, Owens, and Staytonville reflect the traditional rural settlement patterns of Sussex and Kent counties.
