2012 Map of Norwalk North

About this map

Wilton and the surrounding Fairfield County highlands appear here in the early twenty-first century, defined by a densely wooded landscape punctuated by suburban expansion and historical infrastructure. The Norwalk River corridor serves as the primary north-south artery, accompanied by the Metro-North Railroad passing through Cannondale and the center of Wilton. Traces of the region's earlier character are preserved in numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Hickok Cem and Lockwood Cem, alongside landmarks like Cobbs Mill and the Cobbs Mill School near the Weston border. The map documents a complex water system including the South Norwalk Reservoir, Grupes Reservoir, and John D Milne Lake, reflecting the hydrological management necessary for the growing coastal hinterland. Significant terrain features like Sturges Ridge and Huckleberry Hills illustrate the area's elevation patterns between the silver-mining legacy of Silvermine and the residential clusters of Winnipauk Village.
