 Pin Oak Drive

This small parcel is primarily a neighborhood open space area deeded to Salford Township.  Its minimal development includes a baseball backstop, a picnic table, and a swing set.

 Open Space

The Township has been successful in purchasing a 21.6-acre parcel of open space known as the Copper Mine Creek Preservation Area, bound by Hill Road and the North Branch of the Ridge Valley Creek.

Another acquisition is the 104-acre White's Mill property, which is basically under developed and expected to remain so.  Lake fishing is permitted as well as visits to enjoy nature.
