About this map

Bernardston sits at a geographic crossroads in Franklin County, where the valley of the Falls River cuts through a landscape dominated by prominent heights like Wildcat Mtn and Bald Mtn. During this era, the region maintained a strong rural character, evidenced by the high density of district schools including Beaver Meadow Sch, East Hill Sch, and Bald Mountain Sch. The Boston and Maine railroad tracks follow the river's path, passing through Hales Crossing, a vital link for the local economy. To the west, the Greenfield Filter Plant and Greenfield Reservoir indicate the growing infrastructure needs of the neighboring township. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named peaks and winding local roads such as Lovers Lane and Lambblack Road, while the eastern edge is defined by the Northfield State Forest.
