1940 Map of Sconticut Neck

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Fairhaven coastal geography is defined by the prominent peninsula of Sconticut Neck and the nearby West Island, as they extend into the waters where Nasketucket Bay meets the larger Buzzards Bay. This 1940 edition, based on a 1936 survey by Roscoe Reeves and H.B.Smith, illustrates the landscape just before the significant mid-century residential expansion along the coast. The primary artery, Sconticut Neck Road, runs the length of the peninsula, providing the main access to the small clusters of development and the shoreline.
