Explore Sherwood, Maryland, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sherwood, Maryland. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Maryland or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Sherwood.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Sherwood unfolds across a quiet expanse of flat, fertile farmland where the horizon remains wide and unobstructed, save for the occasional silhouette of a dormant silo or a cluster of hardwoods. It lies 10.1 miles west of Talbot, MD (from Talbot, MD: bearing 263°T), and is situated 8.3 miles south of Romancoke. The air here holds a stillness that seems to thicken as the sun dips low, casting long, amber shadows across the fields that stretch toward the distant, hazy rise of Bacon Ridge. Only a mile away, Harris Creek carves a slow, deliberate path through the earth, its dark waters reflecting the changing colors of the sky without the interruption of any turbulent current. Beyond the immediate reach of the cultivated rows, the landscape feels patient and unhurried, defined by the steady, seasonal cycle of planting and harvest that dictates the pace of life in this inland territory.
Sherwood maintains a character forged by generations of agrarian labor and the slow accumulation of local tradition. The proximity to Wittman Park provides a modest refuge for those who seek the quietude of the open fields, while the influence of the broader region remains felt in the sturdy, brick-built architecture that characterizes the older dwellings. While the vast forests like Seth State Forest lie well to the west and Chews Creek sits seven miles distant, the identity of the place remains firmly tethered to the immediate soil and the modest industry of the surrounding plains. Life in Sherwood moves with the gravity of a pendulum, valuing the continuity of the harvest and the deep, uncomplicated connection to the land that has supported this neighborhood for as long as the fences have stood.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
