1985 Map of Bellows Falls

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery and state boundary in this mid-1980s landscape, winding past the industrial and residential clusters of Bellows Falls and North Walpole. The terrain is defined by a succession of fertile riverside meadows, including Great Meadow and Upper Meadows, which transition sharply into the steep, wooded hills of the Sullivan and Cheshire County border. The Boston and Maine railroad tracks hug the riverbank, tracing the historic transportation corridor that fueled the region's growth.
