About this map

Bernardston serves as a central hub in the late 1970s, where the Fall River valley shapes the movement of both modern highways and the historic Boston and Maine Railroad. The landscape is defined by its transition from the agricultural lowlands of Hales Crossing and Newell to the elevated terrain of East Mountain and Wildcat Mtn. In the northern reaches, the map documents the Vermont Massachusetts state line as it cuts across the rural uplands of Windham Co Franklin Co, marking the division between Guilford and Leyden. Local history is preserved through several family and community burial grounds, such as Beaver Meadow Cem and East Hill Cem, alongside public utilities like the Greenfield Reservoir and Filtration Plant. This topographic record illustrates how the region's transport network, including the prominent Interchange 28, adapted to the narrow north-south corridor created by the river and the surrounding ridges.
