1952 Map of Wales

About this map

Hamilton Reservoir and the Quinebaug River valley define the central landscape of this 1952 revision, where the borders of Massachusetts and Connecticut intersect. The area is dominated by established woodland and water bodies, with the Brimfield State Forest in the northwest and Nipmuck State Forest to the south. Small settlements like Wales, Holland, and East Brimfield are shown in their mid-century state, connected by rural roads that wind around prominent terrain such as Rattlesnake Mtn and Mount Pisgah.
