1963 Map of Bristol

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Hogback Mountains dominate the central spine of this landscape, creating a dramatic physical divide between the valley settlements. To the west, East Monkton sits along the drainage of Pond Brook, while to the east, the village of Starksboro follows the narrow corridor of Lewis Creek. This 1960s-era geography shows a region deeply rooted in its local history, evidenced by the high concentration of small family and community burial grounds such as Green Mount Cem, Robinson Sch Cem, and East Monkton Cem. The town of Bristol serves as the southern hub, situated where the New Haven River emerges from the steep terrain near Rocky Dale. Cultural landmarks like Howden Hall and the Mountain Street Sch anchor the Bristol village center, while the presence of the Bristol Airport and various Gravel Pits reflects the mid-century infrastructure supporting the local economy.
