1894 Map of Plymouth

USGS Topo · Published 1921

About this map

The Massachusetts coastline near Plymouth is defined by a dense network of glacial ponds and tidal inlets as it appeared in the late nineteenth century. This survey records the prominent Old Colony Railroad Plymouth Division and the Cape Cod Branch connecting coastal settlements like Sagamore and Bournedale before the modern canal era. Further south, the landscape shifts into the cranberry-growing districts of South Carver and Wareham, where narrow roads like Federal Road and Halfway Pond Road navigate a terrain pocketed with named water bodies such as the Billington Sea and Great South Pond. Along the shore, maritime landmarks including the Duxbury Pier Light and the long expanse of Long Beach protect the harbor, while the heights of Manomet Hill overlook the villages of Chiltonville and Manomet.
