1981 Map of Lyme

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery and state boundary in this 1980s portrait of the upper valley, where the villages of Lyme and Thetford Hill stand on opposing banks. The landscape is defined by its deep educational and transit roots, featuring the historic Thetford Academy and the industrial corridor of the Boston and Maine railroad. Evidence of the region’s mid-century recreational and community life is visible in the Drive-in Theater near Fairlee and the Covered Bridge spanning the river to the north. Higher elevations like Ely Mountain and The Pinnacle overlook a mix of agricultural plots and protected lands, including the Thetford Hill State Forest. The eastern portion of the map is traversed by the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, which winds past Lyme Hill and Post Pond, connecting the river valley to the more rugged eastern uplands.
