2021 Map of Ashland

About this map

The Pemigewasset River carves a deep valley through this portion of New Hampshire, serving as the primary corridor for the towns of Plymouth and Ashland. This landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the river basin and the surrounding peaks, such as Plymouth Mtn and Bridgewater Mtn. To the west, the map details the northeastern reach of Newfound Lake at Pasquaney Bay, a notable water feature that has long influenced local recreation and settlement patterns. The smaller community of Bridgewater is situated near these shores, connected to the interior by a network of rural roads. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the precise locations of historic burial grounds, including Whittemores Cem and Webster Cem, which reflect the area's early agricultural and village roots before modern infrastructure changed the valley's character.
