1944 Map of North Truro

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Highlands define this narrow stretch of the outer Cape, where the Atlantic coast meets the interior topography of the peninsula. Surveyed during the early 1940s and revised shortly after the war, this map shows a landscape shaped by coastal elements and historic infrastructure, notably the Cape Cod Lighthouse standing watch over the ocean side. The settlement pattern is concentrated around North Truro and Pond Village, with a clear division between the maritime exposure of Pilgrim Beach and the sheltered waters of Cape Cod Bay.
