About this map

Mount Megunticook and Mount Battie overlook a coastline where industrial history and maritime recreation converge. The legacy of local lime production and manufacturing is visible through features like the Rockport Historic Kiln Area and several water-power sites, including the Knox Mill Dam and Seabright Mill Dam on the Megunticook River. The harbor geography is densely detailed, showing the Northeast Passage leading into Rockport Harbor and the essential Curtis Island Light guarding the entrance.

Settlement patterns in this Knox County coastal stretch extend from the dense centers of Camden and Rockport to smaller communities such as Simonton Corners, Rockville, and Glen Cove. Genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped, including Oak Hill Cemetery and New Rockville Cemetery. Along the shore, landmarks such as Laite Memorial Beach and the Rockport Town Landing reflect the enduring importance of the waterfront to the local economy and culture.
