1956 Map of Ellsworth

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Sharon and the surrounding rural uplands of Litchfield County are defined by a high-relief landscape where the Housatonic River carves a deep valley through the eastern portion of the map. The mid-century era is captured here, showing the transition from agricultural land to protected forest, as evidenced by large tracts of the Housatonic State Forest and Macedonia Brook State Park. Settlement patterns are clustered around small junctions and hamlets like Mitcheltown and South Ellsworth, while the Appalachian Trail winds through the southwestern hills over Skiff Mtn.
