About this map

The Souhegan River cuts a prominent path through this corner of Hillsborough County, anchoring the town of Greenville and its surrounding hill country. This 1980s landscape reflects a mix of established village centers and upland forest, with the Wapack Range rising in the northwest near Pack Monadnock Mountain. The settlement pattern is defined by traditional clusters such as Wilton Center, West Wilton, and New Ipswich Center, while the industrial history of the region is etched into the terrain through numerous excavations including a Gravel Pit and Sandpit sites.

Conservation and recreation are visible in the large tracts of the Russell State Forest and Russell-Abbott State Forest. Water management is a key feature of the Wilton area, evidenced by the Old Wilton Reservoir and New Wilton Reservoir. Genealogists and local historians can locate several Cem markers and family-named landmarks like Wilson Hill, Howard Hill, and Abbot Hill that provide a record of local land ownership and lineage.
