Explore Chewton, Pennsylvania, 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 Chewton, Pennsylvania. 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 Pennsylvania 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 Chewton.
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.

Chewton occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, southward pull of the Beaver River, which carves a deliberate path through the earth less than a mile from the center of the settlement. It lies 8.0 miles south of New Castle, PA (from New Castle, PA: bearing 172°T), and is situated 9.5 miles north of Beaver Falls. The terrain here rises in measured swells, forming a rugged topography that feels distant from the high, distant peaks of the Allegheny Mountains visible as a faint, jagged ink-line on the eastern horizon. Dense woodlands define the edges of the local territory, particularly where the protected acreage of State Game Land 148 offers a quiet refuge for deer and migratory birds amidst the shifting, seasonal light. Autumn air in Chewton carries a crisp, metallic edge, often settling into the low hollows as a thin, silver mist that lingers long after the sun has crested the surrounding ridges.
Industry and the echoes of a deep, industrial past have long shaped the economic spirit of Chewton, leaving behind the weathered remnants of infrastructure that once fueled the regional appetite for production. While the nearby Slippery Rock Creek Gorge draws the curious to its deep, ancient limestone walls, the life of Chewton remains anchored to the steady, terrestrial work of its inhabitants. Residents observe the passage of time through the changing hue of the deciduous canopy and the slow, rhythmic movement of the Beaver River, a waterway that has served as the silent witness to every generation that has labored upon these slopes. The daily cadence of the place is marked by the hum of transit and the enduring permanence of brick and mortar, reflecting a stoic resilience that honors the labor of those who first cleared the timber and laid the foundations of the settlement.

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.
