About this map

Prettyboy Reservoir and its prominent Prettyboy Dam anchor the northern landscape of this rural Baltimore County region, where the Gunpowder Falls carves through a terrain of winding country roads and scattered crossroads. The late 1950s culture revision reveals a community structured around its spiritual and educational centers, from the Gunpowder Meetinghouse to a high density of rural chapels like Cedar Grove Ch and St Lukes Ch. Industrial and agricultural footprints are visible in the Mushroom Sheds near Western Run and the Pennsylvania railroad line that serves Sparks Sta and Glencoe. This map illustrates the transition of the Maryland countryside, where traditional crossroads like Hereford and Butler remain central hubs even as large-scale water management projects like the Loch Raven Reservoir redefine the local hydrology.
