1975 Map of Athol

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Athol serves as the industrial and social anchor of this mid-1970s landscape, situated where the high-density settlement meets the winding path of the Millers River. This orthophotoquad provides an aerial perspective of the transition from the concentrated urban core of the village to the heavily forested and rural stretches of Worcester County. To the southeast, the crossroads of Phillipston and Phillipston Four Corners reveal the traditional New England town structure, where roads converge on small historic centers. Farther south, Burrage Corner marks a distinct point in the more isolated wooded terrain. The 1975 aerial photography emphasizes the region's land use, contrasting the built-up river valley with the expansive tree cover and natural drainage patterns that define the central Massachusetts highlands.
