2011 Map of Springfield

About this map

The settlement of Springfield serves as the focal point of this Penobscot County interior, situated at the junction of several rural routes in a landscape defined by timber and drainage. A network of primitive ways, including Logging roads and Clearcut Lodge Rd, suggests the ongoing importance of the forestry industry in the early 21st century. The topography is marked by several prominent elevations such as Kirkland Ridge and Tucker Ridge, which dictate the paths of numerous waterways like Mattagodus Stream and the East Branch Mattakeunk Stream. Near the village center, the Springfield Fairground indicates a community hub for agricultural gathering, while the surrounding terrain is dotted with small basins like Webster Pond and Cole Pond. This area represents the classic Maine woods transition where traditional settlements meet the industrial forest and highland ridges.
