1969 Map of Hershey

Rural character persists in the northern townships with small settlements like Shellsville and Manadahill connected by winding roads and old country churches, including Shells Ch and Shoops Ch. The terrain is marked by aviation and leisure sites, from the Brookside Farms Landing Strip to the subterranean Indian Echo Caverns near Hummelstown. Evidence of industry remains through several quarries and the proximity of the Conrail lines, while the purple-tinted revision areas highlight the rapid post-war growth toward Palmdale and Skyline View.
