1897 Map of Pawlet

About this map

Middletown Springs and the village of Pawlet serve as primary hubs in this late-19th-century survey of the Vermont-New York borderlands. The landscape is defined by the narrow, fertile valleys of the Mettawee River and Flower Brook, where settlements like East Wells and North Pawlet developed between prominent summits like Moosehorn Mt. and Tinmouth Mountain. Transportation in the region was anchored by the Rutland R. R. and the Delaware and Hudson R. R., which facilitated the movement of goods and people through the rugged terrain of Rutland County.
