1924 Map of Barre

About this map

The Dog River valley serves as a primary corridor through the Northfield Mountains during this early twentieth-century survey, anchoring a network of rail and education. Northfield stands as a significant hub, defined by the campus of Norwich University and its proximity to the Central Vermont railroad. To the east, the industrial landscape near Barre reveals the intensive granite quarrying operations around Millstone Hill and Websterville, where the Barre and Chelsea RR winds through steep grades to service the local stone industry.
