About this map

Wachusett Mtn and its neighboring peak Little Wachusett dominate the northeastern terrain of this Worcester County landscape. The area is defined by a dense network of water bodies and high points, ranging from the Mare Meadow Reservoir and Bickford Pond in the north to the Quinapoxet Reservoir at the southeastern edge. Small settlements and historical rail-linked locales like Hubbardston Station and Princeton Station are scattered across the quadrangle, connected by roads such as Old Westminster Rd and Mountain Rd.

Genealogists and local historians can find numerous burial grounds including Rural Glen Cem, West Cem, and Goose Hill Cem. The drainage patterns are intricate, with the W Br Ware River and S Wachusett Brook carving through a series of named elevations like Simonds Hill, Savage Hill, and Calamint Hill. This 2018 survey provides a precise look at the modern interface between these preserved natural peaks and the residential clusters of Princeton and Brooks.
