Rising Sun serves as the focal point of this Maryland and Pennsylvania borderland, where the terrain is defined by the winding course of Octoraro Creek and Principio Creek. The landscape preserves a dense network of small historic settlements and rural infrastructure, from Lees Mill in the north to the crossroads at Barnes Corner and Harrisville. The area's deep-rooted community history is visible through numerous family and denominational burial grounds, such as the Krauss Family Cem and the West Nottingham Presbyterian Church Cem.
