2011 Map of Kennett Square

About this map

Kennett Square serves as the focal point of this Pennsylvania and Delaware borderland, where the residential and commercial grid is framed by the Kennett Square Reservoir and several long-standing burial grounds including Union Hill Cemetery and Saint Patrick Cemetery. The landscape transitions from the developed borough into the rolling countryside of Chester County and New Castle County, defined by the expansive grounds of Longwood Gardens and the industrial-era path of the Wilmington & Western RR. Southward, the map details the suburban growth and community structure of Delaware, centered on the Hockessin Post Office and various neighborhood hills like Meeting House Hill and Quaker Hill. Water resources are a prominent feature of the local topography, with the East Branch Red Clay Creek and Hoopes Reservoir providing significant landmarks within this densely settled corridor between Philadelphia and Wilmington.
