1981 Map of Hancock

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The coastal transition of Hancock County is defined by the intricate intersection of the Skillings River and the sweeping tidal flats of Taunton Bay. In the early 1980s, the landscape reflected a mix of maritime geography and industrial utility, with numerous gravel pits and a quarry located near Abbott Cem. The Maine Central Railroad cuts across the terrain, passing through the settlement of Egypt and following a defined railroad grade toward the eastern shore. Small coastal communities like West Franklin and South Hancock anchor the shoreline, where landmarks such as the Hancock Sch and Riverside Cem serve as focal points for local history. The map also reveals the complex hydrography of the region, from the inland waters of Great Pond to the saltwater reaches of Kilkenny Cove and Egypt Bay.
