1956 Map of Wells

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Mousam River and Weehannet River reach the coast in this detailed survey, which tracks the coastal evolution and inland expansion of York County prior to the mid-1970s. The landscape is defined by its series of distinct beach communities, including Wells Beach, Moody Beach, and Kennebunk Beach, separated by tidal rivers and marshes. Evidence of the region’s older agricultural and industrial roots is visible in labels like Wells Branch and Mildram Hill, alongside several Gravel Pits and a Stone Quarry near Ogunquit.
