ASHTON GEAR

Ashton's identity is as intriguing as its name. According to local lore, the community takes its name from either a towering ash tree that once stood at the junction of Route 108 and New Hampshire Avenue, or from a blend of two historic Thomas family estates, Ashland and Clifton, each positioned a mile from that same crossroads. This unincorporated community has developed its own distinct character around that central commercial hub, drawing residents who value its unique sense of place. Wear your Maryland roots with pride.
