2012 Map of Torrington

About this map

The Still River and Naugatuck River valleys anchor this portrait of the Litchfield Hills, showing the complex interplay between the industrial corridor of Torrington and the surrounding rural uplands. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations like Hayden Hill and Cotton Hill, which divide the many smaller drainages including Bakersville Brook and the E Br Leadmine Brook. The map provides significant detail for genealogists, with several historic burial grounds identified, such as the Sons of Jacob Cem, New Saint Francis Cem, and Scoville Cem. To the southeast, the township of Harwinton is centered around Meetinghouse Hill, while the Harwinton Fair Grounds serves as a local landmark. Small settlements like Burrville and Bakersville remain distinct among the expanding road networks, and specialized sites like the Mountain Meadow Airstrip and Burr Pond state parkland illustrate the area's mix of private aviation and public recreation.
