1977 Map of Sconticut Neck

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Sconticut Neck extends into the waters of Buzzards Bay in this 1977 orthophotoquad, which uses aerial imagery to document the coastal geography of Bristol County. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this imagery-based study provides a direct visual record of the land use and vegetation patterns during the late 1970s. The relationship between Sconticut Neck and the adjacent West Island is clearly visible, showing the narrow land bridge connecting them and the developed residential footprints along the shore. This perspective is particularly useful for observing shoreline stability and the density of coastal settlements before further modern development altered the peninsula's character.
