1953 Map of Scotland

About this map

The hills and river valleys of Windham County and New London County are defined here by a network of colonial-era roads and scattered hilltop hamlets. The Shetucket River curves through the southwestern corner, paralleled by the tracks of the New York New Haven and Hartford River, marking a corridor of transit and industry near Hanover. Further north, the landscape rises toward prominent elevations such as Pudding Hill and Westminster Hill, where local life centered around rural institutions like the Howard Valley Ch and several family-named burial grounds.
