1948 Map of Tolland

About this map

West Branch Farmington River carves a deep valley through this 1948 survey of the Massachusetts and Connecticut borderlands. The landscape is defined by its numerous glacial water bodies, from the substantial Noyes Pond in the northeast to the smaller Simons Pond and Pinehurst Lake further south. Small industrial and residential clusters like New Boston and West New Boston sit at key river crossings, while Roosterville and Mcclayville represent the scattered hamlets that once supported the region's rural economy.
