About this map

Tidal estuaries and glacial drumlins characterize the landscape of coastal Massachusetts in the mid-20th century. The town of Ipswich serves as a central hub, where the Boston and Maine railroad crosses the Ipswich River near the historic center. The surrounding terrain is a complex network of salt marshes and creeks, including Sir Goose Creek and Metcalf Creek, which weave between numerous named rises like Heartbreak Hill and Timber Hill.
