1972 Map of Chester

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Williams River and the Black River carve through the landscape of Windsor County, defining the settlement patterns seen in this early 1970s survey. Industrial and transport infrastructure is concentrated along the valleys, where the Middle Branch meets the main stem at Chester. The map captures a period of transition, showing the Springfield State Airport (Hartness) and a local Armory alongside older landmarks like Baileys Mills and Chester Depot. To the north, the North Springfield Reservoir dominates the drainage of the Black River near Perkinsville. The area's agricultural and rural character is preserved in numerous named hills such as Hawks Mountain and Litchfield Hill, while small local centers like Spoonerville and the curiously named Old Shincracker reflect the deep-rooted local history of these Vermont townships.
