1926 Map of Dixfield

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Lake Webb dominates the northwestern landscape of this Maine interior, its waters framed by steep slopes such as Potter Hill and Rand Ridge. In the valley to the south, the industrial and transport hub of Dixfield sits at the confluence of the Webb River and the Androscoggin River, where the Maine Central railroad tracks follow the river's bend. This 1920s environment is defined by its rural infrastructure, featuring a dense network of country schoolhouses like Maple Grove School and Science Hill School scattered across the upland townships. Evidence of local industry appears at Hildreths Mill along Alder Brook, while numerous small settlements including Berry Mills, Weld, and East Dixfield serve as anchors for the surrounding timber and dairy country. The terrain rises sharply to the east toward the heights of Mt Blue and Spruce Mtn, illustrating the transition from river valley commerce to mountain wilderness.
