Item Information

Title:
Old Swan Swamp
Description:
Located on the south side of the old toll road that is now Route 117, this swamp was often referred to in old deeds. The unusual hummocks shown here were caused by the action of spring freshets and winter frosts over long periods of time. The formations have long since been plowed under.
