2015 Map of Botsford

About this map

Redding Ridge and Hattertown anchor a landscape defined by significant water storage and agricultural heritage in this modern Fairfield County survey. The area is dominated by large hydrological features including the Saugatuck Reservoir to the west and Easton Reservoir in the southeast, which supply the region's population centers. The settlement pattern remains largely residential and rural, with small communities like Stepney and Huntingtown connected by a dense network of country roads such as Poverty Hollow Rd and Black Rock Tpke. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies several distinct burial sites, from the Tashua Burial Ground to the Union Cem. Geographic elevations like Sunset Hill and Eden Hill rise between the valleys of the Aspetuck River and the Pootatuck River, illustrating the dissected upland topography of southwestern Connecticut.
