1950 Map of Paxton

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Paxton and its neighboring Worcester County townships appear at mid-century as a landscape defined by industrial history and institutional sprawl. The southern reaches of the map highlight the textile legacy of Spencer, specifically at Upper Wire Village and Lower Wire Village, where the settlement pattern follows the local water power. In the north, the massive footprints of the Veterans Hospital and the State Sanitorium in Rutland dominate the high ground near Barrack Hill.
