2021 Map of Claremont North

About this map

The Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site anchors the northern reaches of this map, preserving the legacy of the American Renaissance in the hills of Sullivan County. This landscape is defined by the high ridges of Green Mtn and Croydon Mtn, which separate the various clusters of the Cornish community. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of Blow-me-down Brook and the Sugar River, where West Claremont and the larger city of Claremont sit at the southern edge. Local history is etched into the terrain through numerous small burial grounds, such as the West Point Burying Ground and Edminster Cem. The road network, including Old Stagecoach Rd and Town House Rd, connects historic hamlets like Cornish City and Cornish Center, reflecting a centuries-old agricultural and residential layout that persists alongside modern institutional features like River Valley Community College.
