1948 Map of Norwich

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The settlement of Norwich sits at the western edge of this rugged McKean County landscape, where the waters of Potato Creek and the East Branch Potato Creek converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of steep hollows and narrow runs, including Sattlee Hol, Kimball Hollow, and Railroad Run, reflecting the difficult topography that dictated movement in northern Pennsylvania during the mid-20th century. High points like Dividing Ridge and Evans Hill overlook the deep valleys, while a prominent Pipe Line cuts a straight path across the northern hills, signaling the region’s industrial connection to resource extraction. Revisions from the 1970s, shown in purple, detail evolving vegetation patterns and small road changes across the Liberty and Norwich townships, offering a clear record of how this forested corridor shifted between the post-war era and the late 20th century.
