2015 Map of Leicester

About this map

Stiles Reservoir and the headwaters of the Little River define the landscape of central Worcester County in this 2015 study. The map shows a cluster of industrial-era heritage sites including Watson Millpond, Clarks Mill Pond, and Cider Millpond, reflecting the area's deep history with water-powered manufacturing. Numerous small settlements such as Charlton Depot, Rochdale, and Cominsville are clearly delineated, showing the expansion of residential life around traditional village centers like Leicester and Spencer. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds recorded, from the Saint Josephs Cem in the north to the Bay Path Cem in the south. The map also highlights the recreational evolution of the land, featuring several organized camps like Camp Neyati and Camp Bement situated among the high points of Mt Pleasant and Ballard Hill.
