1953 Map of Milford

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Milford serves as the industrial and residential hub of this Worcester County landscape, situated where the New York New Haven and Hartford RR meets the waters of Cedar Swamp Pond. In the mid-1950s, the area reflects a balance of growing municipal density and preserved woodlands, including the extensive Upton State Forest and Whitehall State Forest. Traces of the local economy are evident in the numerous quarries near Rocky Woods Range and the National Guard Rifle Range north of the city center. To the west, the village of Upton sits between Pratt Hill and Pratt Pond, while Westboro Reservoir and Whitehall Reservoir define the northern hydrology. For those searching for family history, several prominent landmarks are noted, including the County Home near Craddock Pond and the Vernon Grove Cem in the southern reaches of Milford.
