About this map

Prouts Neck anchors this coastal landscape where the Nonesuch River and Libby River converge into a complex network of salt marshes and tidal estuaries. During the mid-1940s, this area of Cumberland County balanced its established maritime identity with modern technological and military shifts. The presence of an Observation Post on the rocky peninsula and an Abandoned Airport near Scarboro suggests the wartime focus of the era, while the WCSH NE Radio Tower on Hunwall Hill marks early telecommunications infrastructure.
