2018 Map of Northfield

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the primary artery through this tri-state border region, where Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont converge. The landscape is defined by its alluvial plains and surrounding highlands, notably the Moose Plain and Beers Plain on the river’s eastern bank. Several small settlements and station points mark the historical transit corridor, including South Vernon, East Northfield Station, and Gill Station. The presence of Munns Ferry and the Schell Bridge highlights the long-standing importance of river crossings for connecting these agricultural and institutional communities.
