About this map

Quarryville serves as a focal point in this portion of Lancaster County, where the settlement pattern follows the drainage of the Big Beaver Cr and its tributaries. The landscape is defined by its transition from the structured street grids of Strasburg and Lampeter to the more dispersed hamlets of New Providence, Hessdale, and Camargo. These smaller communities often emerged at key road intersections or near water sources like Goff Run and Walnut Run.

Tracing the transport network reveals the importance of historical routes such as the Strasburg Pike and Penn Grant Rd. The inclusion of landmarks like Bunker Hill and Stony Hill provides topographic context for the agricultural valleys between them. Notable local infrastructure, including the Strasburg Reservoir, illustrates the managed water resources essential to these established Pennsylvania townships. This survey captures a balance of rural land use and growing residential developments near the turn of the 21st century.
