1971 Map of Andover

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Andover Branch and Middle Branch rivers carve through the central mountains of Windsor County, defining a landscape of small settlements and high hills. Simonsville, Middletown, and Andover sit along these valley floors, connected by winding roads like Lovers Lane. The map reveals a high density of rural infrastructure, including the East Hill Sch and numerous burial grounds such as Heald Cem and Simsbury Cem, reflecting the early civic development of these townships. Industrial activity is concentrated at several Gravel Pit sites and a Quarry near Whetstone Hill. The eastern portion of the quadrangle includes the Chester Reservoir and the Proctor-Piper State Forest, where the terrain rises toward Butternut Hill and Ingraham Hill. This 1970s survey captures the area just as modern forest management and recreational spaces began to balance with the long-standing agricultural and family-named landmarks that have anchored these Vermont hills for generations.
