About this map

The Piscataqua River and its expansive Great Bay anchor this late-19th-century study of the Seacoast region, revealing a landscape defined by tidewater geography and a dense network of competing rail lines. Industry and transit intersect at Dover, where the Cocheco River meets the town center, and at South Berwick near the Great Works mill site. The map documents a pivotal era of regional connectivity, featuring the Boston and Maine Railroad and its various branches, including the Western Division and the Portsmouth and Dover R.R..
