Laid out in 1763, Hanover was nicknamed ‘Rogue's Rest’ because of its reputation for lax law enforcement during an early Pennsylvania-Maryland boundary dispute. It was the site of the first Civil War battle to be fought north of the Mason-Dixon line (30 June 1863). Hanover and its surrounding area are particularly known for their standardbred horses, notably the trotters and pacers raised on the 16 sq km/6 sq mi Hanover Shoe Farms (established 1926).
