At the confluence with an unnamed tributary from the left, Mill Creek turns southward for a little more than 0.5 miles (0.80\u00a0km). Meeting with another unnamed tributary from the left, it now flows southwestward about another 0.5 miles (0.80\u00a0km) until Robin Run joins at Mill Creek’s 4.39 river mile from the right where it runs south-southwest for 1.33 miles (2.14\u00a0km) to its confluence at Neshaminy Creek’s 23.65 river mile just south of Rushland.[4]Table of ContentsGeology[edit]Named Tributaries[edit]Municipalities[edit]Crossings and Bridges[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Geology[edit]At Mill Creek’s headwaters, at the confluence of Lahaska Creek and Watson Creek, is the Allentown Formation, a sedimentary layer of rock deposited during the Cambrian. Mineralogy includes dolomite, limestone, chert, siltstone, oolite, stromatolites, and sharpstone conglomerate.After a very short distance, it flows into the Leithsville Formation, a sedimentary layer also deposited during the Cambrian. Mineralogy includes dolomite, some containing sand or shale, calcareous shale, and chert.It then flows into the Brunswick Formation, a sedimentary layer laid down during the Jurassic and Triassic. Mineralogy includes shale, mudstone, siltstone, green and brown shale.Shortly before it reaches the Neshaminy, it flows into the Lockatong Formation, another formation of sedimentary rock. Mineralogy includes a dark-gray to black argillite, some zones of black shale, and some limestone and calcareous shale.Named Tributaries[edit]Municipalities[edit]Crossings and Bridges[edit][5][6]CrossingNBI NumberLengthLanesSpansMaterial\/DesignBuiltReconstructedLatitudeLongitudeSwamp Road4082022 metres (72\u00a0ft)21Steel stringer\/multi-beam or girder2000–40\u00b015’34.1″N75\u00b01’33.3″WForest Grove Road7346129.9 feet (39.6\u00a0m)–6masonry arch-deck1905–40\u00b016’54″N75\u00b01’18″WSmith Road (373)752384 feet (26\u00a0m)–6Prestressed concrete box beam or girder, concrete cast-in-place deck2000–40\u00b017’11″N75\u00b01’32″WNew Hope Road7081548.9 feet (14.9\u00a0m)––Prestressed concrete box beam or girder, concrete cast-in-place deck1983–40\u00b017’21″N75\u00b02’4″WLower Mountain Road753268.9 feet (21.0\u00a0m)––Prestressed concrete box beam or girder, concrete cast-in-place deck1982–40\u00b018’5″N75\u00b02’56″WUpper Mountain Road753366.9 feet (20.4\u00a0m)––Prestressed concrete box beam or girder1995–40\u00b018’33″N75\u00b03’7″WSee also[edit]References[edit]^ MacReynolds, George, Place Names in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Doylestown, Bucks County Historical Society, Doylestown, PA, 1942, P1.^ “Domestic Names”.^ http:\/\/www.lycoming.edu\/cwi\/pdfs\/paGazetterOfStreams.pdf, page 97^ “Google Maps”. www.google.com.
