Octoraro Lake and its branching coves form the geographic heart of this landscape, winding through a series of agricultural uplands on the border of Lancaster and Chester counties. The settlement pattern reflects a long history of rural community life, anchored by numerous religious landmarks and burial sites such as the Eastland Friends Burial Ground and the Colerain Baptist Church. The terrain is characterized by rolling hills and small watercourses like Coopers Run and McCreary Run that feed into the central reservoir.
