About this map

Kennett Square serves as the central hub of this 1993 survey, anchoring a landscape where the rural traditions of East Marlborough and Kennett townships meet the growing suburban developments of northern Delaware. The state line between Pennsylvania and Delaware bisects the map, showing how historic sites like the Old Kennett Meeting House and the Longwood Cem near Longwood exist alongside more modern infrastructure like the Kennett Medical Center and the Water Filtration Plant.

Tracing the path of Red Clay Creek reveals a corridor of historical industry and transportation, marked by the Covered Bridge near Ashland and the Burnt Mills area. Residential expansion is evident in the dense clusters of named developments such as Wellington Hills, Westover Chase, and Cokesbury Village. For the local historian, the map preserves the location of essential community markers, from the Mill Creek Meeting House to the H B Dupont Middle Sch and McKean High Sch.
