2024 Map of Tolland Center

About this map

West New Boston and New Boston sit at the northern edge of this landscape where the Buck River meets the Clam River, marking a territory defined by narrow valleys and high ridges. The map illustrates the interstate boundary between Massachusetts and Connecticut, a divide that separates the small communities of McClaveville and North Colebrook from the more developed Tolland Center to the northeast. The southern half is dominated by the expansive Colebrook River Lake, which fills the valley floor once carved by the West Branch Farmington River. Genealogists will find a high density of small family and local burial sites, including the Babcock Family Cem and Baptist Cem. Terrain features like Snow Mtn and Mt Prospect overlook a network of backcountry roads such as Roosterville Rd and Old Colebrook Rd, which follow the ancient contours of the hills.
