1975 Map of Gorham

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Gorham serves as the central hub of this mid-1970s orthophotograph, illustrating a transitional landscape where residential expansion meets the historical agricultural fields of Cumberland County. The aerial perspective reveals a dense patchwork of woodlots and clearings, anchored by the industrial and residential centers of Westbrook and South Windham. Three distinct waterways define the drainage of this coastal plain: the winding Presumpscot River to the north, and the Stroudwater River and Nonesuch River flowing toward the Atlantic to the south. This survey, produced by the Geological Survey in cooperation with the Soil Conservation Service, documents the development patterns of North Scarborough during a period of significant regional growth.
