About this map

The Delaware River forms a natural border between Hunterdon County and Pennsylvania, anchoring a landscape where river-town history and rural agriculture persist. Following the river's edge, the Delaware and Raritan Canal runs parallel to the bank, passing through Stockton and Brookville. This corridor is defined by its engineering heritage and early transport networks, including the nearby Green Sergeant Covered Bridge crossing Wickecheoke Creek.

Upland from the river, the terrain rises toward Sandy Ridge and Mt Gilboa, dotted with established settlements like Sergeantsville, Locktown, and Rosemont. Local history is etched into the landscape at The Rosemont Cemetery and Barber Cemetery, while more modern aviation needs are met by facilities such as The Landing Airport. From the banks of Hendrick Island to the winding course of Alexauken Creek, the area maintains a balance of small-town centers and open agricultural tracts.
