About this map

Big Timber Creek and its complex network of tributaries, including the North Branch and South Branch, define the suburban landscape of this Camden and Gloucester County border region. This 2019 survey reflects a densely developed area where residential communities like Runnemede, Blackwood, and Pine Hill are tightly woven between major transit corridors such as the New Jersey Tpke and Black Horse Pike. The map illustrates the historical importance of local water bodies, showing Runnemede Lake, Blackwood Lake, and Grenloch Lake as central features around which early settlements grew.

Institutional landmarks and local history are preserved through sites like Saint John's Episcopal Cem, Saint Josephs Cem, and Marys Cem. The educational landscape is anchored by the Rowan College at Gloucester County and the Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine. Farther south, the transition toward less dense terrain is marked by Prossers Mills and the expansive Bells Lake, showing the persistent influence of the area's many brooks and runs.
