1956 Map of South Harpswell

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Harpswell Neck extends into the island-studded waters of Casco Bay on this mid-century survey, anchoring a maritime landscape defined by deep sounds and sheltered coves. The fishing and coastal heritage of the era is evident in the layout of South Harpswell and the clustered settlements along Bailey Island, where Mackerel Cove provides a natural harbor. Beyond the main landmasses, the map details a complex archipelago including Haskell Island, Eagle Island, and Jewell Island, the latter of which features an Observation Tower and Observation Towers overlooking the open Atlantic Ocean.
