2021 Map of Plainfield

About this map

Plainfield and the surrounding villages of Washington County are situated at the confluence of the Winooski River and its varied tributaries. The landscape is defined by its educational and architectural landmarks, most notably the campus of Goddard College and two historic spans, the Coburn Covered Bridge and Martin Covered Bridge. This topography reveals a high concentration of small, family-named burial grounds and local cemeteries, such as Ainsworth Cem, Bliss Cem, and Quake Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research. Settlements like East Calais, North Montpelier, and Kents Corners remain connected by a network of winding roads including Hollister Hill Rd and N Calais Rd. To the north, the terrain rises toward peaks like Knob Hill and Gritt Hill, while several small water bodies, including Sodom Pond and Crystal Pool, dot the valleys between the ridges.
