1955 Map of Roxbury

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Shepaug River carves a deep valley through Litchfield County in the mid-1950s, defining the rugged character of the Roxbury area. This period captures the landscape just as the Lake Linninonah reservoir was subject to controlled inundation, an engineering shift that reshaped the southern portion of the quadrangle near Roxbury Falls. The river corridor is marked by historic infrastructure, including the Roxbury Sta and the Gaging Sta Wellers Br, illustrating the area's transition from a rail-dependent rural economy to one focused on water management and recreation.
