2012 Map of Maynard

About this map

Maynard and its industrial heritage along the Assabet River define this portion of Middlesex County during the early 21st century. The landscape reveals a complex network of established settlements, including Acton, Sudbury, and the distinct hamlets of West Acton, South Acton, and East Acton. The importance of water power to the region's development is evident in the presence of Damons Mills and Westvale, as well as numerous impoundments like the Fort Pond Brook Reservoir, Millpond, and Stearns Millpond. Local history and genealogy researchers will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites across the townships, such as Mount Hope Cem, Woodlawn Cem, and Saint Bridgets Cem. The terrain is marked by numerous named elevations, from Tuttle Hill near the river to Annursnac Hill and Strawberry Hill in the north, showing how the suburban expansion of the Boston area has integrated with the area's natural drumlins and wetlands.
