About this map

Gilmanton Ironworks serves as the focal point of this Belknap County landscape, where the Suncook River flows south toward Camp Fatima. The area is defined by a series of prominent elevations, including Cogswell Mountain and Pine Mountain, which overlook numerous bodies of water such as Sunset Lake and Hills Pond.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of early religious and community sites. The Smith Meeting House Cem sits near Meetinghouse Pond in the western portion of the quadrangle, while Barnstead Cem and Second Cem are located to the southeast near the border of Lower Gilmanton. In the far northeast, the map reaches the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee at Loon Cove, illustrating the transition from the interior hills to the region's larger lakes.
