MD 425 connects Nanjemoy and Ironsides with Pisgah and Mason Springs in western Charles County.
The state highway heads northeast as two-lane undivided Ironsides Road through a forested area, passing Baptist Church Road and crosses a branch of Hill Top Fork of Nanjemoy Creek.
The state highway continues north as Mason Springs Road, crossing Jane Berrys Run.

Also in 1933, 1 mile (1.6 km) of gravel road was constructed from the Nanjemoy end.
