2024 Map of Uxbridge

About this map

The Blackstone River valley in Worcester County defines this landscape, where the Providence & Worcester RR follows the water through industrial and residential centers. The map focuses on the historic textile communities of Whitinsville and Linwood, where Whitins Pond and Arcade Pond sit as evidence of early water-powered industry. The transition from established village centers like Uxbridge and Douglas to the more rural, wooded areas is marked by a high density of family burial grounds and community landmarks. Researchers will find numerous namesake locations such as Plummers Hill and Prentice Corner, alongside unique terrain labels like the Bad Lands near the northern edge. The southern portion of the sheet crosses into Rhode Island, showing the connectivity of rural roads and small homesteads across the state line.
