2018 Map of Penacook

About this map

The Merrimack River serves as the central artery for this region, winding past Dustin Island and the village of Penacook. This survey captures the complex intersection of river-dependent industry and modern infrastructure, where Sewalls Falls and Goodwin Point define the waterway's passage toward Concord. The landscape is dotted with generational markers, from the Kezer Seminary in the east to the New Hampshire State Veterans Cem near Boscawen. Small settlements like Boyce and Canterbury Station anchor the rail and road corridors that follow the river valley. To the north and west, the terrain rises into named heights such as Zion Hill and Cogswell Hill, interspersed with numerous wetlands and water bodies including Morrill Pond and Kimball Pond, reflecting a landscape that balances historic upland farming with conserved natural areas.
