About this map

Plymouth serves as a major regional anchor on this 2012 survey, defined by the extensive campus of Plymouth State University and the Plymouth State Fairgrounds along the Baker River. The landscape is a corridor of established settlements following the water, from Campton Upper Village and Campton Lower Village in the north down to West Campton and Beebe River. This spatial arrangement reflects a legacy of river-based industry and rail transport, evidenced by locations like Campton Station and Lyfords Siding.

Genealogists will find several notable burial sites including Campton Hollow Cem, Blair Cem, and Trinity Church Yard Cem. The terrain is punctuated by prominent elevations such as Bald Mountain, Mount Pero, and Mount Tim, which overlook a network of brooks and ponds including Stinson Lake and the Bog Brook drainage. These features characterize a transition from the structured academic and civic life of the town center to the recreational and timbered hills of the surrounding county.
