1957 Map of Barre

About this map

Montpelier and Barre anchor this mid-century survey of the Central Vermont uplands, where the Central Vermont and Montpelier and Barre railroads follow the winding paths of the Dog River and Winooski River. In Northfield, the campus of Norwich University is a prominent landmark, while the surrounding hillsides are dotted with numerous one-room schoolhouses like Glidden Sch and Rabbit Hollow Sch, reflecting a rural educational landscape that was already changing by the late 1950s.
