1893 Map of Duxbury

USGS Topo · Published 1925

About this map

Scituate and the surrounding coastline of the South Shore appear here as they were surveyed in the late 19th century, characterized by a complex network of marshes, tidal inlets, and early maritime infrastructure. The landscape is punctuated by significant landmarks like the Old Tower at Cedar Point and the prominent Standish Monument atop Captains Hill, overlooking the waters of Duxbury Bay. The importance of global communication during this era is evidenced by the Telegraph Cable to Brest and its accompanying Telegraph Office near the barrier beach.
