2021 Map of Barre West

About this map

The Winooski River and Dog River corridors anchor this 2021 landscape between the major Vermont centers of Montpelier and Barre. Historically centered on the high ground of Berlin Corners, the area is defined by the significant basin of Berlin Pond and the surrounding peaks of Irish Hill and Paine Mtn. The map reveals a high concentration of ancestral burial grounds scattered across the hillsides, such as Johnson-Sawyer Cem, Dewey-Wright Cem, and Loomis Cem, which provide critical markers for genealogists researching early settlement patterns. Industrial and modern transportation infrastructure is represented by the Edward F Knapp State Airport and the commercial development along the Barre-Montpelier Rd, while the southern reaches near the Washington Co and Orange Co line transition into the more rural landscape of South Barre.
