1893 Map of Abington

USGS Topo · Published 1919

About this map

The Glades and Osher Rocks guard the Atlantic shoreline of this South Shore landscape as it appeared during the late nineteenth century. The area is defined by the convergence of the Old Colony Railroad and its numerous branches, connecting inland industrial and residential centers like Rockland, Abington, and Weymouth to the coast. This network supported local commerce at nodes such as Weymouth Landing and Old Colony House Station, while the complex topography of glacial drumlins like Turkey Hill and Prospect Hill dictated the winding paths of the carriage roads.
