About this map

Patten occupies the northern edge of this orthophotoquad, serving as a hub for the surrounding agricultural and timber lands of Penobscot County during the mid-1970s. The aerial imagery captures a distinct transition from the concentrated residential blocks and local roads of the village to the expansive, patchwork fields that dominate the central landscape. Traveling south along the main thoroughfare, the terrain gives way to the smaller settlement at Sherman Station, which is situated near the winding course of the East Branch Molunkus Stream. This drainage system, along with the nearby locality of Siberia, defines the drainage patterns and historical land use of the region, where the interplay between managed woodlots and cleared farm acreage reflects the local economy of northern Maine.
