About this map

Fort Devens occupies a significant portion of this 1930s landscape, positioned at the junction of the Nashua River and the Boston and Maine Railroad. The map reveals a region defined by established institutions and religious history, notably the Groton School and the historic Shaker Village near Shaker Mill Pond. Industry and public works are evident in the sprawling Sewage Disposal Plant and the varied mill ponds that supported local manufacturing, such as Plow Shop Pond and Old Mill Pond.
