About this map

Glacial kettle ponds and cedar swamps define this interior Plymouth County landscape as it appeared in the mid-1930s. The Indian Head River and North River meander through the terrain, historically powering small industry like the labeled Fireworks works and various mills that previously occupied the Mill Ponds. Settlement is concentrated around traditional village centers like Hanover, Pembroke, and Bryantville, while the southern portion of the map is dominated by the expansive Silver Lake and the wetlands around Monponsett.
