About this map

Codorus Furnace stands near the confluence of Codorus Creek and the Susquehanna River, anchoring a landscape defined by industrial history and river navigation. The river itself is dominated by large landforms like Haldeman Island and the turbulent Conewago Falls to the north. Settlement is concentrated in the boroughs of Mount Wolf, Manchester, and York Haven, which are linked by historic transit corridors and educational centers like Northeastern High Sch.

Away from the riverbanks, the terrain rises into the Hellam Hills, where large recreational areas like Rocky Ridge County Park and John Rudy County Park preserve the wooded heights. Traces of early agrarian and community life are evident in the numerous family burying grounds and local landmarks, including Goods Cem, Mundis Mill, and several country churches like St Pauls Ch, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement patterns of York and Lancaster counties at the turn of the millennium.
