About this map

Blandford and the surrounding Berkshire highlands are defined by a complex network of brooks and steep ridges at the Hampshire and Hampden county line. The landscape is dotted with several notable burial sites including the Old Burying Ground and North Blandford Cem, providing a clear record of early regional settlement. Water management is a central theme, with the Huntington Reservoir and Black Brook Reservoir occupying significant valleys alongside numerous smaller bodies like Beaver Pond and Cochran Pond.

A geologist or surveyor will note the unique landforms such as The Volcanic Crater near Green Hill and the distinct elevation at Sunset Rock Sunset Hill. Transport routes like Otis Stage Rd and N Blandford Rd connect the primary village centers of Huntington and North Blandford, following the natural contours of the hills. The map captures the quiet, upland character of this Massachusetts region, marked by family-named landmarks like Peebles Hollow and Tillotson Hill.
