2015 Map of Newport

About this map

Newport serves as the hub of activity on the southern shores of Lake Memphremagog, where the Black River and Barton River converge at South Bay. The landscape is a mix of lakeside development and prominent glacial hills, including Darling Hill and Shattuck Hill, which overlook the surrounding Orleans County countryside. To the east, Derby Center sits near the headwaters of the Clyde River, which flows through Clyde Pond before reaching the larger lake. Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of burial sites across the township, from the central Saint Marys Cem and East Main Street Cem to outlying locations like Mitchell-Derusha Cem and Crandall Cem. The presence of the Newport State Airport and the corridor of I-91 reflect the modern infrastructure that connects this border region to the broader New England interior.
