A Google search turned up the following on an old version of the Baltimore County Public Library web page for Perry Hall: "Perry Hall includes about 13 square miles of land. The community's western edge is Putty Hill, named for the sloping ground that meets White Marsh Run." Phil

Thanks Phil, that sounds like something someone else mentioned - "clay hill". Place and road names fascinate me and make me very curious about their origin, ie, Pig Town.
