About this map

The Ware River valley serves as the industrial and transit spine of this late 19th-century Worcester County landscape, where the Central Massachusetts Railroad and the Boston and Albany Railroad converge. These rail lines connect a network of manufacturing hamlets and mill villages like Old Furnace, Gilbertville, and Smithville. The topography is defined by dozens of named summits, including Dougal Mtn and Ragged Hill, which overlook a mosaic of small farms and water-powered industries.
