About this map

Wachusett Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this Worcester County map, where its indented shoreline meets landmarks like Cemetery Island and Sawyer Bluff. The industrial and educational heritage of the region is evident in the cluster of settlements including South Lancaster, Ponakin Mill, and Clinton. Of particular interest to researchers are the numerous historic grounds, such as the Old Common Burial Ground and the Settlers Cem, alongside institutional sites like Atlantic Union College and the Lancaster Industrial School for Girls Cem.

Regional transportation and infrastructure are deeply etched into the terrain, from the Cosgrove Aqueduct to the modern recreation routes following historic paths, including the Mass Central Trl and the Mwra-Wachusett Aqueduct Trl. The map traces the winding courses of the Nashua River and its tributaries through a landscape of hills, including Burdett Hill and Wataquadock Hill, which have long defined the character of these Central Massachusetts communities.
