Trappe and its surrounding agricultural lands in Talbot County are defined by an intricate network of tidal estuaries and peninsulas, locally known as necks. This 2019 survey captures a landscape where modern development meets centuries of Maryland Eastern Shore heritage, visible in the numerous small family and community burial grounds like Old Whitemarsh Cem and Queen Esther Cem. The terrain is segmented by waterways such as Peachblossom Creek, Trippe Creek, and Island Creek, which have historically dictated the placement of settlements like Ivytown and Hambleton.
