About this map

Newfound Lake serves as the central anchor for this part of Grafton County, with the northern reaches of the water body surrounded by the foothills of the White Mountains. The town of Hebron sits at the northern end of the lake, characterized by its historical core and the nearby Hebron Village Cem. To the west, the Cockermouth River flows through Groton, a landscape marked by significant elevation changes ranging from the valley floor to the peaks of Mt Crosby and Mount Cardigan. The presence of several smaller water bodies like Spectacle Pond and Little Pond highlights the complex glacial hydrology of the region.

Local history is preserved in small burial grounds such as Pratt Cem and Riverside Cem, while the shoreline geography is detailed through features like Whittemore Point and Loon Island. The area around Sculptured Rocks and the various brooks, including Wise Brook and Fretts Brook, illustrate the drainage patterns feeding into the larger lake system, which remains a primary geographical feature for the communities of East Hebron and Nuttings Beach.
