About this map

Fort Devens occupies a significant portion of the landscape south of the Nashua River, showing the military installation as it appeared in the late 1930s. The town of Ayer serves as a central hub, where several lines of the Boston and Maine Railroad converge near Plow Shop Pond and Flannagan Pond. This rail network highlights the area’s industrial and transit importance, connecting the village of West Groton and Squannacook Junction to the broader region.
