1965 Map of Ashburnham

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Wapack Range and Mount Watatic anchor this mid-1960s survey of the Massachusetts-New Hampshire borderlands, where the rocky terrain and numerous glacial lakes shaped early industrial and residential development. In Ashburnham, the campus of Cushing Academy stands near the village center, while smaller settlements like Lane Village and Wellville sit tucked between Lower Naukeag Lake and Upper Naukeag Lake. The Boston and Maine railroad tracks cut through the southern landscape, reflecting the region's historical reliance on rail for transport. Large tracts of the Ashburnham State Forest and the Watatic Mtn Wildlife Area demonstrate a shift toward conservation and recreation, including several ski tows on the slopes. From the Bancroft Reservoir in the north to Lake Wampanoag in the south, the map details a landscape defined by its water resources and high points like Little Watatic Mountain.
