2010 Map of Shinglehouse

About this map

Oswayo Creek and Honeoye Creek converge near the community of Shinglehouse, forming a valley network that defines the settlement patterns of this border region. The landscape is characterized by a series of deep drainages and named hollows, such as Karr Hollow, Seely Hollow, and Wapsena Hollow, which branch away from the main waterways. Small clusters of homes and farmsteads are concentrated at rural crossroads like Sharon Center, Myrtle, and Sunnyside, often situated where side streams like Bell Run or Wildcat Creek meet the larger valley floors. This 2010 survey shows the persistence of traditional land names, including Shaytown and East Sharon, while the road network follows the ancient contours of the terrain through passages like Church Hollow and Doyle Hollow.
