About this map

The borough of McSherrystown and the nearby historic borough of New Oxford anchor this landscape in the southeast corner of Adams County. The map shows a transition from these established residential centers to the productive agricultural lands of the Conewago Valley. Waterways like the S Br Conewago Cr and Brush Run weave through the terrain, supporting local landmarks such as Kaiser Lake and the Hanover Reservoir. This 2013 survey provides a detailed view of modern infrastructure integrated with historic land patterns.

Several smaller named clusters and rural nodes are evident, including Berlin Junction, Edgegrove, and Brushtown. The presence of the Hanover Airport and agricultural operations like the Sheraton Breeding Farm and Xanthus Farm highlight the varied land use in this part of Pennsylvania. Topographical features like Pigeon Hill and the uniquely named Mount Misery provide physical context to the surrounding valley and its dense network of local roads and thoroughfares.
