1975 Map of West Granville

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

West Granville and Granville Center anchor this mid-1970s orthophoto study of the Massachusetts-Connecticut borderlands. Captured during the peak of autumn in 1975, the aerial imagery reveals a landscape defined by significant water management infrastructure. Large impoundments, including the Cobble Mountain Reservoir in the northeast and the Barkhamsted Reservoir to the south, dominate the terrain. These reservoirs are fed by systems like the East Branch Farmington River and Little River, which carve through the wooded uplands. Settlement patterns are concentrated along historic crossroads, such as Baird Four Corners and the community of West Hartland just across the state line. The orthophoto format provides a unique view of field boundaries and forest density that traditional line-drawn maps often obscure, offering researchers a clear look at land use during this era.
