1949 Map of Bridport

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Bridport and Shoreham anchor this mid-century survey of the Champlain Valley, where the landscape is defined by the meandering Lemon Fair River and the complex drainage of Dead Creek. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent elevations, including Hamilton Hill, Rice Hill, and Mutton Hill, which rise above the surrounding agricultural lands. Notable social landmarks include All Saints Chapel near Cream Hill and St Genevieve Ch in Shoreham village, alongside several burial grounds like Village Cem and the NW Cornwall Cem. The presence of School No 6 and various named brooks such as Potash Brook and Bascom Brook reflects a settled, rural economy integrated with the natural wetlands of Cedar Swamp. This 1949 topography, based on earlier aerial photography and lake surveys, documents the established road network including Lake Shore Road and West Bridport during a period of stable Vermont farm life.
