About this map

Polk Junction and the borough of Polk anchor this Venango County landscape, where the confluence of Sandy Cr and its various tributaries shaped the early development of the region. The map highlights a network of rural crossroads and small hamlets such as Raymilton, Henderson Station, and Pearl, which historically served as local hubs for farming and small-scale industry. The winding course of Little Sandy Cr flows past Polk Dam Lake, while numerous runs like Bear Run and Bullion Run carve through the terrain.

Transport patterns are evident in the crossing at Waterloo Bridge and the namesake corners such as Wallace Corners and Woods Corners. The presence of extensive access routes like Game Lands Access Rd reflects the modern transition of the area toward conservation and recreation, yet the older place names and road designations like Hells Kitchen Rd and Reeds Furnace Rd hint at the rugged industrial and local lore of earlier generations.
