1954 Map of Stamford

About this map

Stamford and the remote settlement of Heartwellville sit at the center of this 1954 topographical study of Bennington County. Much of the landscape is dominated by the Green Mountain National Forest, where the terrain is carved by the North Branch Hoosic River and the West Branch Deerfield River. The map captures the infrastructure of the mid-20th century, from the primary Stage Road to the more isolated Klondike Road leading toward the small enclave of Klondike.
