1951 Map of Tisbury Great Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Tisbury Great Pond and its intricate network of finger-like coves dominate this coastal landscape on the southern shore of Martha's Vineyard. The 1951 revision shows a shoreline defined by a long, continuous beach barrier separating the Atlantic Ocean from a series of brackish ponds, including Chilmark Pond, Black Point Pond, and Watcha Pond. Inland, the terrain is shaped by the glacial outwash plain, where small settlements like Chilmark and Nabs Corner are connected by local routes such as South Road and Quenames Road.
