About this map

Rockville and the surrounding industrial and residential landscapes of north-central Connecticut are mapped here in extensive detail. The urban core around the Hockanum River contrasts with the managed waters of Shenipsit Lake and the Walker Reservoir West. This area is characterized by a high density of established community landmarks, including numerous burial grounds like Grove Hill Cem and Saint Bernards Cem, reflecting generations of local history.

The landscape transitions into the hills of Bolton and Vernon, where the Tankerhoosen River and Blackledge River headwaters define the geography. Historic transportation corridors are prominent, including the Boston Tpke and the Willimantic Tpke, which intersect near Quarryville. From the industrial heritage of Talcottville to the recreational waters of Upper Bolton Lake, the map documents a region where early colonial settlement patterns have integrated with modern infrastructure and suburban growth.
