About this map

The Boston and Maine RR cuts a straight path parallel to the Atlantic coastline, anchoring the mid-1940s development of this York County region. The landscape transitions from the tidal marshes of the Webhannet River and Merriland River to the inland agricultural and residential clusters. At the shoreline, the community of Wells Beach (Webhannet PO) sits on a narrow barrier strip, while inland hubs like Wells and Moody are connected by established routes like Sanford Rd and Elms Road.
