2018 Map of Parker Mountain

About this map

Strafford sits at the heart of this landscape where the Big River and Little River weave through the southeastern foothills of the Blue Hills Range. This modern survey illustrates a rural New Hampshire environment defined by its dispersed hamlets and high concentration of family burial grounds, including the McNeal Cem near Lockes Corner and the Perkins Cem further south. The topography is anchored by Parker Mtn and Evans Mtn, while the southwestern corner is marked by the expansive waters of Bow Lake. For those tracing local history, the map preserves the locations of several smaller settlements like Leighton Corners and South Barnstead, alongside distinctive terrain features such as Barn Door Gap and Sanders Ledge.
