2024 Map of Peterborough North

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

The Contoocook River and Nubanusit Brook converge in this corner of southern New Hampshire, defining the historic industrial and residential layout of Peterborough and its neighbor, Hancock. The map details the transition of the region's infrastructure, where the Inactive Rail Trl follows the former path of the railroad through the river valley, now connecting communities like North Village and Elmwood. Local history is deeply embedded in the landscape through numerous burial grounds, including the Old Street Cem and Hillside Cem, while the arts are represented by the sprawling MacDowell Colony west of the river. Significant water management features such as the Edward MacDowell Reservoir and Powder Mill Pond illustrate the mid-century engineering that reshaped the valley's natural drainage for flood control and recreation.
