Italy is noted for its sharp hills and upland areas. Flint Creek and West River are two important streams located here.

Flint Creek has two spring heads flowing East/ northeast separately to the valley floor where they join up. Flint Creek flows through Potter eventually empty into Lake Ontario. Many small mills were located along this creek. Nothing but the occasional grind stone remains as any suggestion of this.
