1953 Map of Durham

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Durham and Durham Center serve as the primary hubs of this Connecticut landscape, situated at the head of the Durham Meadows where the Coginchaug River begins its northward flow. The village character is defined by its colonial-era layout and local industry, represented by Allyn Millpond and several brooks that once powered early mills. To the west, the steep ridges of Pistapaug Mountain and Totoket Mountain create a formidable natural boundary, punctuated by Reed Gap, which carries the New York New Haven and Hartford rail line through the highlands.
