1978 Map of Shepherdstown
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
The Potomac River carves a dramatic serpentine path through this borderland, defining the sharp turns of Horseshoe Bend and the peninsula of Terrapin Neck. This late-1970s landscape is dominated by the historic core of Shepherdstown, where Shepherd College and the Rumsey Monument stand near the James Rumsey Bridge. The Maryland side of the river highlights the preserved infrastructure of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, running parallel to the water through Snyders Landing and Taylors Landing.
