1893 Map of Barnstable

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

The Great Marshes dominate the northern coastline of this Cape Cod landscape, separated from Cape Cod Bay by the long, narrow reach of Sandy Neck. At the turn of the century, the region's transport was anchored by the Old Colony Railroad Cape Cod Branch, which connected coastal depots like Barnstable Station and West Barnstable Station. The map reveals a dense network of inland ponds, including Wakeby Pond and Mashpee Pond, which are interspersed with local landmarks like the Indian Meeting House in Mashpee and the Spring Hill Academy near Sandwich.
