The landscape around Milton is low and level, shaped by Delaware’s coastal plain and the tidal Broadkill River, which has influenced both the town’s layout and its local economy. Set inland from Delaware Bay, Milton grew as a river port with shipbuilding and trade among its historic activities. Its compact centre retains many older buildings, while the riverfront recalls the town’s maritime past. Milton is also home to Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, whose beers have given this small Delaware town national recognition.
