2013 Map of Port Matilda

About this map

Port Matilda sits at a geographic crossroads in Centre County, where the waters of Bald Eagle Cr meet tributary runs. This modern survey illustrates the persistent layout of older valley settlements, including the historical iron industry site at Martha Furnace and the village of Stormstown. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and high ridges, punctuated by prominent features such as Wolf Rocks and Flat Rock. Agricultural and residential patterns follow the lowlands of Halfmoon Valley and the banks of Halfmoon Cr. Significant infrastructure and local industry are evidenced by corridors like Clay Mine RD and the proximity to the Foster Joseph Sayers Lake recreational area. Smaller hamlets like Centennial and Hannah remain clearly demarcated, providing a detailed record of central Pennsylvania's rural geography and settlement continuity.
