1946 Map of Moodus

About this map

Moodus and the surrounding villages in Middlesex and New London Co appear here during the mid-1940s, a landscape defined by the convergence of the Salmon River and the Blackledge River. This area is characterized by its numerous water bodies, ranging from the large Pocotopaug Lake to the clusters of smaller ponds like Number One Pond and Number Two Pond. The industrial and agricultural heritage of the region is evident in the positioning of settlements like Leesville along the Moodus River and the rural infrastructure of Westchester.
