About this map

The Batten Kill River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and industry in this late 19th-century survey of Bennington County. The Bennington and Rutland R. R. follows the river's path, connecting hubs like Manchester Center and Arlington. While the valley floor is densely populated with small industrial centers such as Chiselville and East Arlington, the surrounding highlands of the Green Mountain range are defined by numerous hollows and peaks. Insight into the era's mountain economy is visible at Kelley Stand and the remote Fayville settlement to the south. Notable geological and recreational landmarks including Equinox Mountain and Equinox Pond dominate the central landscape, while the D. & H. R. R. cuts through the northwest corner near West Rupert, highlighting the importance of rail transit for these Vermont communities.
