1958 Map of Egremont

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The New York-Massachusetts border defines the western edge of this landscape, where the highlands of the Taconic Range meet the agricultural valleys of southern Berkshire County. Settlements are concentrated along the watercourses, including North Egremont on the Seekonk Brook and South Egremont near Mill Pond. The map captures a moment when local landmarks like Cornwell Academy and the Great Barrington Airport served as anchors for the community. High elevation points such as Mt Sterling and Mt Bushnell overlook the Jug End area, while the Appalachian Trail winds through the southern ridges of Mount Washington. Genealogists and local historians can locate the uniquely named Bow Wow Cem in Sheffield or the Battlesite Mon, which marks a specific point of historical conflict in the region.
