1958 Map of Newfield

About this map

Province Lake and Great East Lake straddle the border between Maine and New Hampshire, anchoring a landscape defined by glacial ponds and small village centers. In the late 1950s, this region of York County was characterized by a dense network of local roads and family-named corners such as Mee Corners and Stevens Corner. The presence of Limerick Mills and Ossipee Mills indicates the historical importance of water power along the local drainages, while the Bond Ski Mtn Area near Mitchell Mtn signals the mid-century development of seasonal recreation.
