1954 Map of Royalston

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Royalston and the surrounding Worcester County highlands are depicted here at a mid-century moment before significant modern development. The map details a landscape defined by its numerous water bodies and rugged hilltops, with the Boston and Maine railroad following the path of the Miller River through South Royalston. Cultural markers such as the Raymond Sch and the settlement at West Royalston suggest the local community structure during the 1950s. The northern border marks the transition into New Hampshire, showing Laurel Lake and Sportsman Pond spanning the state line. Extensive State Forest lands and significant heights like Tully Mtn and Chestnut Hill characterize the terrain, while the river networks of Scott Brook and the East Branch Tully River illustrate the complex drainage patterns of this upland region.
