About Roxbury
Roxbury is a nearly 22-square-mile township in western Morris County encompassing Succasunna, Ledgewood, Kenvil, Port Morris, Landing, and Lower Berkshire Valley. Its story is written in canal, iron, and lake: the Morris Canal ran through it, Landing is the gateway to Lake Hopatcong's southern shore, and the Ledgewood Historic District preserves its 19th-century core. Main Street Succasunna anchors everyday life, with Horseshoe Lake recreation nearby.
