2018 Map of Barrington

About this map

Barrington and its surrounding villages of South Barrington, West Barrington, and North Nottingham are defined by a complex network of glacial ponds and drainages along the Isinglass River. The landscape is dotted with numerous family cemeteries, including the Hanson Cem, Shackford-Jenness Cem, and Locke Cem, offering significant value for genealogical research in Strafford County. Water bodies like Swains Lake, Mendums Pond, and Wheelwright Pond dominate the topography, interspersed with distinctive local landmarks such as Bumfagging Hill and Mt Misery. This 2018 survey reveals a settlement pattern where modern residential roads like Golf Course Way and Hearthside Dr weave between older routes and established farmstead sites. The crossing of the Bellamy River and various brooks like Mallego Brook and Spruce Brook underscores the historical importance of water power and drainage in this New Hampshire corridor.
