1953 Map of Iron Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The South Mountain Sanatorium sits atop the high ground of the South Mountain range, marking a significant early 20th-century institutional presence in this landscape. Below the ridges, the Western Maryland railroad follows the contours of the valley, connecting the industrial site at Maria Furnace with the community of Iron Springs. The map reveals a transition from the steep, wooded terrain of Culp Ridge and Snaggy Ridge to the agricultural openings around Fairfield and Virginia Mills.
