Peterborough and its neighboring villages are captured here in the late 1980s, revealing a landscape defined by the winding course of the Contoocook River. The map highlights the famous MacDowell Colony, a renowned artist residency, alongside local landmarks like the St Joseph Minor Seminary and the small residential clusters of North Village and West Peterborough. The industrial and natural history of the region is evident in the development around Powder Mill Pond and the MacDowell Reservoir, which managed the waterways that once powered local mills.
