1971 Map of West Granville

About this map

The Massachusetts-Connecticut borderlands take center stage in this 1970s survey, defined by the extensive protected woodlands of Granville State Forest and Tunxis State Forest. These public lands preserve the high, rolling terrain where the Farmington River East Branch flows into the Barkhamsted Reservoir at the southern edge of the sheet. Settled pockets like West Granville and Granville Center are linked by West Granville Road, while the rural crossroads at Baird Four Corners and the small cluster at North Hollow illustrate the historic habitation patterns of the Berkshire foothills.
