The Erie Canal cuts a definitive path through the heart of this Wayne County landscape, connecting the industrial and residential centers of Newark and Lyons. This corridor follows the natural drainage of Ganargua Creek and the Canandaigua Outlet, illustrating the 19th-century engineering that utilized river valleys to facilitate westward transport. The surrounding terrain is defined by distinctive glacial drumlins, including Bailey Hill, Silver Hill, and Jackson Hill, which dictate the winding paths of rural roads and the placement of early settlements.
