About this map

The Delaware River shoreline at Penns Grove and Carneys Point serves as the industrial gateway to this Salem County landscape. Moving inland, the terrain is defined by the winding courses of Oldmans Creek and the Salem River, which feed into a complex network of agricultural and milling communities. The post-war economy is reflected in the established rail lines of the Pennsylvania Reading Seashore Lines and the presence of utility infrastructure like the Transformer Station near Milltown.
