1954 Map of Tolland

About this map

The Farmington River West Branch carves a deep valley through this mid-century landscape on the Massachusetts-Connecticut border. This 1954 edition, compiled by the Army Map Service, documents the rural character of the southern Berkshires and northern Litchfield County just as post-war recreation began to define the region. Large tracts of protected land, including the Sandisfield State Forest and Tolland State Forest, surround small crossroads settlements like New Boston and West New Boston. The map traces a network of high-elevation water bodies from Mirror Lake to Pinehurst Lake, alongside family-named landmarks like Noyes Hill and Babbitt Mtn. In the southern portion, the hamlet of North Colebrook and the site of Camp Wynbrooke reflect the area’s transition from early industrial milling sites toward a seasonal retreat character, all while maintaining the rugged, forested topography that separates the village of Tolland Center from its neighbors.
