1967 Map of Moodus

About this map

The Salmon River carves through this Central Connecticut landscape, defining the boundaries between Marlborough, Colchester, and East Hampton. In the mid-1960s, the area retained a high concentration of institutional landmarks and historical infrastructure, notably the Old Comstock Bridge and an extensive Old Railroad Grade that winds through the eastern hills. The settlement at Moodus sits just north of the Moodus Reservoir, a significant water feature that anchors the southern portion of the quadrangle alongside Bashan Lake.
