It is a mill hamlet/farmstead located on Wickecheoke Creek several miles upstream from where it joins the Delaware River, at the point where the creek cuts down from the Hunterdon Plateau. It includes Green Sergeant's Covered Bridge (a covered bridge bringing County Route 604 over the creek), two other bridges, two mill sites, three houses, a schoolhouse, and a large barn complex. The site was in use probably by the 1750s.[2]
