Chesterfield Township is a Township in Burlington County, New Jersey. Chesterfield Township comprises three distinct communities Chesterfield, Crosswicks and Sykesville. The area was first settled in 1677, when a group primarily consisting of Quakers settled in the area of Crosswicks, the oldest of the Chesterfield's three villages. Chesterfield has permanently preserved over 7000 acres of farmland through state and county programs and a township-wide transfer of development credits program that directs future growth to a designated receiving area known as Old York Village. Old York Village is a neo-traditional, new urbanism town on 560 acres incorporating a variety of housing types, neighborhood commercial facilities, a new elementary school, civic uses, and active and passive open space areas with preserved agricultural land surrounding the planned village.
