About this map

Wheaton College sits at the heart of Norton, serving as a central landmark in this 1950s Bristol County landscape. The area is defined by its complex water systems, where the Rumford River and Canoe River feed into the expansive Norton Reservoir. The industrial and institutional character of the era is evident in the presence of the Copper Works near Barrowsville and the large footprint of the Myles Standish State School on the eastern edge.
