2013 Map of Walton West

About this map

The W Br Delaware River carves through the southern landscape of this 2013 survey, anchoring the riverside settlements of Walton and Beerston. This region is defined by its deep valley networks, where narrow roads follow the courses of Third Brook, Loomis Brook, and Pines Brook. Higher elevations are marked by prominent summits like Walton Mountain and Loomis Mountain, creating a rugged terrain that influenced the dispersed settlement patterns of rural hamlets like Northfield and Loomis. Significant local landmarks provide insight into the community's agricultural and civil heritage, including the Walton Grange and several historic burial grounds such as Walton Cem and Northfield Cem. The concentration of infrastructure near the river, including the Walton Airport, highlights the valley's role as a primary corridor for transportation and commerce in Delaware County.
