About this map

Coastal inlets and established inland villages define this 1885 landscape, capturing the South Shore's transition from maritime centers to expanding industrial rail hubs. The Old Colony Railroad anchors the region's transport, connecting hubs like Weymouth Landing and Old Colony House Station to the rocky shores of Cohasset Harbor and Scituate Harbor. Inland, the terrain is shaped by an intricate network of water bodies, including Whitman Pond, Accord Pond, and the massive Great Pond near South Weymouth.
