1956 Map of Litchfield

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Bantam Lake dominates the central landscape of this Litchfield County survey, serving as a focal point for the surrounding towns of Morris and Litchfield. The map captures the mid-century infrastructure of the area, from the State Police Radio Tower atop Plumb Hill to the complex water management systems including Wigwam Reservoir and Morris Reservoir. The settlement pattern reflects a traditional New England layout, with clusters of development in Bantam and Bethlehem contrasting with the protected woodlands of the Mattatuck State Forest. Cultural landmarks like Camp Columbia and Wamogo High Sch are clearly marked, alongside numerous family-named peaks such as Guernsey Hill and Wheeler Hill. The detail extends to local utilities like the Sewage Disposal plant and several historic burying grounds including West Cem and East Cem.
