1951 Map of Assonet

About this map

The Taunton River and its winding tributaries dominate this mid-century portrait of Bristol County, where maritime geography meets a maturing inland infrastructure. The shoreline is punctuated by Assonet Bay and Shepherds Cove, providing a backdrop for established riverfront communities like Dighton and North Dighton. Further inland, the map captures the transition from small-town centers to the dense woodlands of the Freetown Fall River State Forest and the State Wildlife Sanctuary.
