1932 Map of Mascoma

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Lower Shaker Village and Upper Shaker Village occupy the western shores of Mascoma Lake, marking a distinct chapter of communal history in this part of Grafton County. The landscape is defined by the high ridges of Moose Mountain and Shaker Mountain, which hem in a network of ponds and narrow valleys. This 1927 survey, updated with Air Corps aerial photography, illustrates a rugged terrain where small settlements like Enfield Center and Canaan Street are connected by the Boston and Maine railroad line as it follows the Mascoma River. Numerous rural institutions are documented across the hills, from the remote Height of Land School to the Methodist Hill School. The presence of the Hanover Reservoirs and several clusterings of neighborhood schools, such as the Etna Highlands School, reflects the decentralized settlement patterns of the early twentieth century before modern consolidation.
