About this map

Industrial villages and hilltop farms define the borderlands of Worcester County and Rhode Island in the early 1950s. The Blackstone River winds through the valley, anchoring dense mill settlements like Millville, Blackstone, and Waterford. This period captures the region's mid-century transition, where traditional spiritual centers like the Chestnut Hill Meeting House and Friends Ch exist alongside modern developments such as the Mendon Landing Field and a nearby Drive-in Theater.
