Grafton and the surrounding Worcester County countryside are defined by the winding course of the Blackstone River, which anchors a string of industrial-era villages including Fisherville, Farnumsville, and Saundersville. The landscape is a complex mix of historical residential clusters like Wilkinsonville and North Grafton, interspersed with significant water bodies such as Lake Ripple and Flint Pond. The mapping reveals a transition from these denser settlement patterns to more agricultural and open spaces, exemplified by the Keown Orchard near East Sutton.
