About this map

The Boston and Maine Railroad corridors and the waters of the Pemigewasset River anchor this 1928 survey of the New Hampshire highlands. Small settlements like Campton Upper Village and West Thornton dot the valley floor, connected by the State Highway as it winds northward toward the peaks of the White Mountain National Forest. This era shows a landscape where local industry and institutional life are deeply ingrained, evidenced by the Tripoli Mill near Thornton Gap and a dense network of rural schoolhouses including Pulsifer Hill Sch, Baker River Sch, and the Holderness Sch near the southern boundary. To the east, the terrain rises sharply toward Sandwich Mtn and Acteon Ridge, while the southeastern corner reveals the early shoreline development of Squam Lake at Deephaven. The map effectively captures the transition between the industrial river towns and the growing seasonal appeal of Waterville Valley.
