1957 Map of Hillsboro

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Contoocook River winds through this mid-century landscape, anchoring a series of mill towns and villages connected by the Boston and Maine railroad. Centers of industry and commerce like Hillsboro, Henniker, and Antrim are shown at a peak of post-war development, still closely tied to the water power and rail lines that defined their 19th-century growth. The map reveals a dense network of local institutions, including the uniquely named Donkey School and the Fox Research Forest, indicating the region's transition towards specialized agriculture and conservation.
