About this map

Quarryville anchors the southern portion of this Lancaster County landscape, where the agricultural traditions of the Pennsylvania Piedmont meet a network of small crossroads settlements. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Pequea Creek and Big Beaver Creek, which drain a region dotted with historic hamlets such as Lampeter, Strasburg, and New Providence. Transportation routes like the Strasburg Pike and Penn Grant Rd follow the contours of the land, connecting scattered farmsteads and rural landmarks.

Local history is preserved in sites like Saint Catherines Cemetery and the many small community centers including Refton, Hessdale, and Lime Valley. The map details a sophisticated network of naming conventions, from the Bunker Hill and Oak Hill rises to the numerous runs and creeks like Goff Run and Conowingo Creek that reflect the area's deep-rooted water-powered and agricultural heritage. This survey provides a clear view of the settlement patterns and rural infrastructure of the early 21st century.
