1957 Map of Bailey Island

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The settlement at Bailey Island serves as the focal point for this coastal survey of the Casco Bay region. Located within the township of Harpswell, the map details a complex maritime landscape where the granite-fringed coastline of Orrs Island and smaller outcroppings meet the Atlantic Ocean. Key navigational markers and hazardous shoals are meticulously noted, including the Jamison Ledge Beacon and numerous ledges such as Saddleback Ledge and Charity Ledge. The map captures the island's mid-century character, with structures concentrated around Mackerel Cove and connected by the slender crossing at Wills Gut. Beyond the inhabited areas, the archipelago extends into the bay with Flag Island, Ragged Island, and Pond Island, reflecting the traditional fishing and seafaring heritage of Cumberland County's outer islands.
