1987 Map of Hillsboro

About this map

The Franklin Pierce Homestead stands as a central historical landmark in this region of southern New Hampshire, situated near the headwaters of the winding Contocook River. The landscape is defined by its significant water bodies, notably the sprawling Franklin Pierce Lake and the smaller, high-elevation Bagley Pond nestled beneath Windsor Mtn. The settlement pattern follows the river and brook valleys, where small population centers like Hillsboro Lower Village, Antrim Center, and Clinton Village indicate a long history of concentrated community growth.
