About this map

The Niagara Escarpment defines the physical and social geography of this 1949 survey, where the dramatic elevation change separates the lower plains of Wilson and Newfane from the higher ground in Wheatfield and Pendleton. This topographic divide is traversed by a network of early local thoroughfares, including Lower Mountain Road and Upper Mountain Road, which follow the contours of the ridge. The agrarian economy of the mid-20th century is evidenced by the numerous orchards and vineyards dotting the landscape near settlements like North Ridge and Warrens Corners.
