2014 Map of Bath

About this map

Bath serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the Kennebec River meets a complex network of channels and points. This 2014 mapping project details the dense grid of the city, from the waterfront of Front ST and Commercial ST to the historic cemeteries of Oak Grove Cem and First Parish Cem. The landscape is defined by its maritime connections, including the narrow navigation of The Chops Passage and the broad waters of Merrymeeting Bay. To the east, the settlement of Woolwich and the hamlet of Days Ferry sit across the river, connected by the Carlton Bridge and Wilder Bridge. The prevalence of small cemeteries and family-named landmarks like Butler Head and Trufant Ledge reflects centuries of continuous settlement in the Midcoast region. Farther inland, the terrain transitions toward Nequasset Lake and the agricultural lands near North Bath, showing how local roads like Old Stage RD have long integrated these riverfront communities.
