About this map

Durham and the University of New Hampshire anchor the southern reach of this landscape, where the Oyster River meets tidal flats. The area is defined by a dense network of water and rail, with the Boston and Maine Railroad cutting through Madbury and Sawyers toward the urban centers of Dover and Rochester. A complex history of land use is visible in the numerous burial grounds like St Charles Cem and Sanders Cem, alongside institutional landmarks such as the County Farm and Green Hill Chapel.
