1892 Map of Tolland

About this map

The industrial and agricultural centers of northern Connecticut are captured here in the late nineteenth century, dominated by the manufacturing hubs of Rockville and Stafford Springs. The map reveals a landscape defined by its water power, with the Shenipsit Lake reservoir and the Willimantic River driving local mills and settlements. In the south, Wangumbaug Lake anchors South Coventry, while the varied terrain features prominent elevations such as Soapstone Mtn and Box Mtn.
