1953 Map of Plainfield

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Plainfield and the upper reaches of the Winooski River anchor this mid-century survey of the Vermont highlands. The landscape is defined by a dense network of upland settlements and social institutions, including Goddard College and the landmark Old West Ch near Kents Cors. Industrial history is visible in the Granite Quarries near Woodbury and the infrastructure of the St Johnsbury and Lake Champlain RR, which served timber and stone interests through Walden Heights Walden Sta. The map records numerous neighborhood schools such as Pekin Sch and Houston Hill Sch, alongside many small rural burial grounds like Robinson Cem and Plains Cem. The terrain is punctuated by significant water bodies, notably Mollys Falls Pond and Groton Pond, which supported the region's early power and recreation needs while Marshfield stood as a key rail stop along the Montpelier River.
