2018 Map of Hampton

About this map

Hampton and its coastal neighbors define this shoreline landscape where the Atlantic meets a complex network of salt marshes and tidal inlets. The maritime character of the region is evident in the transition from sandy stretches like Seabrook Beach and North Beach to the rocky promontories of Little Boars Head and Great Boars Head. Inland, the settlement pattern reveals centuries of local history through family-named landmarks and clusters such as Cemetery Corners, Fogg Corner, and Elmwood Corners. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites, including the Ye Old Neighborhood Cem, Locke Cem, and the Philbrick Family Cem. The legacy of early industry and transport is preserved in names like Coffins Mill and Hampton Landing, while the marshlands are navigated by features such as Tide Mill Creek and Blind Creek, illustrating a community deeply intertwined with its watery geography.
