2000 Map of Farmington

About this map

Farmington and the surrounding township at the turn of the millennium center on the convergence of the Cocheco River and the Mad River. The landscape is defined by the prominent heights of Birch Ridge and Nute Ridge, which shelter numerous bodies of water including Sunrise Lake and Gould Pond. An Old Railroad Grade traces a legacy of transportation through the valley, passing near Hayes Corner and Farmington. This 2000-era survey documents the persistent rural character of the area, punctuated by small settlements like Union and Middleton Corners. Conservation efforts are visible through the Jones Brook State Wildlife Management Area and Milton Mills State Wildlife Management Area, preserving the watershed of Jones Brook and its tributaries near the Strafford and Carroll county line.
