Wright’s Wharf

Wrights Wharf is located at the end of Wrights Wharf Road on the east side of the Choptank River in Dorchester County, nearly opposite Clarks Wharf, just south of the Caroline and Dorchester county line. The wharf is shown as an unnamed wharf on an 1877 atlas map and named on a 1911 Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic Railway Company map.
