1897 Map of Sheffield

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

Great Barrington serves as the focal point of the upper Housatonic River valley in this late nineteenth-century survey. The landscape is defined by the steep transition from the river basin to the dramatic heights of Mount Washington, where peaks like Mt Everett and Mt Ashley tower over the valley floor. Transportation corridors are well-established, with the New York New Haven & Hartford railroad following the river's path, connecting settlements like Sheffield and Ashley Falls.
