1919 Map of Alton

About this map

Alton Bay marks the southeastern reach of Lake Winnipesaukee, where the Boston and Maine RR met the shoreline at the peak of the region's resort era. This 1917 survey, published as the automobile began to reshape New Hampshire, reveals a landscape of high ridges and narrow valleys defined by the Blue Hills Range and Birch Ridge. The network of early thoroughfares like Ten Rod Road and Wolfeboro Road connects long-established hill settlements such as New Durham and Farmington.
