Town of Richmond
Richmond lies upon the western border of the county south of the center. It consists of a nearly square portion of land lying near the foot of Honeoye Lake, and a narrow strip extending along the e. shore of that lake and its inlet to the southern border of the county. A wide valley occupies the center, opening toward the north and surrounded by hills from 50 to 200 feet high on the 3 remaining sides. The southern strip is very hilly, the summits rising 500 feet above the surface of the lake. Honeoye and Hemlock Outlets and Egypt Brook are the principal streams. [back]
