About this map

Coventry and the surrounding villages of Summit and Greene define this interior Rhode Island landscape, where the headwaters of the Flat River and Nooseneck River drain a series of reservoirs and ponds. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named peaks, including Waterman Hill, Bowen Hill, and Weeks Hill, illustrating the enduring legacy of early landholdings in Kent County. The settlement pattern follows historic corridors like Plainfield Pike and Flat River Rd, connecting smaller hamlets like Vernon and Potterville.

Large bodies of water, such as the Flat River Reservoir and Quidnick Reservoir, dominate the central topography, while more secluded sites like Great Grass Pond and Whitford Pond remain tucked into the low-lying areas. The boundary between Providence and Kent counties crosses the northern portion of the map, separating the rural reaches of West Greenwich from the more northern elevations near Mt Misery and Nipmuc Hill.
