Mayfield Village - Watersheds Map

Community-specific watershed maps were created for all Euclid Creek Watershed Council communities in 2014 for display and educational purposes. The Euclid Creek Watershed Council Public Involvement and Public Education Committee came up with the idea for this educational deliverable. And the maps were printed with Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District grant funds through their Watershed Operating Support Grant.

Redstone Run Highland Reserve

In May 2013, this 8.71 acre property on Highland Road in Richmond Heights was purchased for conservation as part of a larger effort to protect water quality in the Euclid Creek Watershed. This property contains 1,000 linear feet of Redstone Run, a tributary to the East Branch of Euclid Creek, and is made up of steep shale slopes leading down to the creek. The land was purchased to protect the high-quality plant and animal habitat and to protect the site’s steep slopes from development or deforestation. The property retained in its natural state provides an ideal ’land lab’ for research and educational activities and will enhance the overall beauty of this portion of Euclid Creek.

This rugged, heavily-wooded piece of land is unique in that it lies at a point where the stream cuts through hard bluestone terrace to create a small gorge in the soft shale below. Redstone Run takes its name from an outcrop of Berea Sandstone which, when quarried, has a pinkish color. In the early 1800s the site was used for a water-powered sawmill. The sites steep slopes and mature trees make it an absolute beauty.

Partners from Friends of Euclid Creek, West Creek Conservancy, and Cuyahoga Soil & Water Conservation District worked together to purchase the property with full support of Richmond Heights City Council. Acquisition funds were generously provided by the Clean Ohio Fund and the Friends of Euclid Creek raised remaining funds through their Land Conservation Fund.

Get involved with your local watershed group and take part in keeping your watershed clean and healthy.
