1965 Map of Shirley

About this map

The Nashua River and Squannacook River define the eastern reach of this landscape, where the Boston and Maine railroad tracks weave through the valley to serve the town of Shirley. To the south, the sprawling Fort Devens Military Reservation occupies a significant portion of the terrain, neighbored by the State Industrial Sch for Boys and the Lancaster State Forest. These institutional and military footprints contrast with the suburban expansion visible in Leominster and Lunenburg, where residential clusters and gravel pits suggest mid-century growth.
