The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises including Forge Hill, Bright Hill, and Pigeon Hill, with the Charles River winding through the western portion near North Bellingham. Social and industrial life is marked by local landmarks like St Marys Ch and the specialized Sewage Disposal plant near Unionville.
