1957 Map of Alton

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Blue Hill Range anchors this mid-century landscape where New Hampshire’s lakes and hills meet established crossroads. The topography is defined by prominent peaks like Blue Job Mtn and the narrow passage of Barn Door Gap, which separates the high ground of the New Durham Ridge. Settlement patterns are distinctly concentrated around historic corners and junctions, such as Stockbridge Corners and Meaderboro Corner, reflecting a rural infrastructure built on early turnpikes and local roads.
