1893 Map of Falmouth

About this map

The Woods Hole Branch of Old Colony Railroad defines the western shore of Cape Cod in the late 19th century, connecting maritime villages from Monument Beach down to the busy harbor at Woods Hole. This coastal corridor is marked by a sequence of established summer colonies and shipping points, including West Falmouth, Falmouth Station, and the waterfront resort of Falmouth Heights. The intricate shoreline is a maze of necks and harbors, such as Phinney's Harbor and Cataumet Harbor, where land and sea interlock.
