1956 Map of Dover West

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The University of New Hampshire campus and the surrounding Strafford County landscape are documented here in the mid-1950s, with later updates showing the expansion of the Spaulding Turnpike. The map reveals a transition from the industrial centers of Dover and Somersworth to the academic and agricultural character of Durham and Madbury. This era shows the Boston and Maine Railroad still serving as a major transport artery, cutting through the river-dominated terrain of the Cocheco River and Bellamy River.
