1955 Map of Roxbury

About this map

The Shepaug River carves a deep path through the center of this Litchfield County landscape, anchoring a network of small settlements and family-named hills during the mid-1950s. Communities like Roxbury and Bridgewater are depicted in detail, showing a rural economy still shaped by the valley’s topography and the legacy of the regional railroad. The presence of Roxbury Sta and the Gaging Sta along the river highlights the transition of the waterway from a commercial artery to a managed resource, while the nearby Shepaug Reservoir underscores the area's role in the regional water supply.
