2018 Map of Westford

About this map

Westford and Union anchor this 2018 survey of the borderlands between Tolland and Windham counties. The landscape is defined by its deep hydrography and numerous high points, ranging from the northern Stafford Springs Reservoir Number 2 and Stickney Hill down to the southern peaks of Holt Mtn and Wenberg Hill. Distinctive geological and industrial markers appear in the names of Lead Mine Hill and Lead Mine Brook, while the narrow corridor of Boston Hollow cuts through the terrain east of Westford Hill. Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented, including Westford Village Cem, Swamp Cem, and Moose Meadow Cem. The map illustrates a modern rural infrastructure where recreation and residence cluster around bodies of water like Lake Chaffee, while specialized landmarks such as the Westford Airstrip and numerous ponds like Stowell Pond and Zaicek Pond detail the local topography.
