1952 Map of Westford

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Nipmuck State Forest dominates this upland landscape on the border of Tolland and Windham counties, where the high ridges of Bald Hill and Lead Mine Hill divide the drainage of the Fenton River and Mount Hope River. This 1952 revision captures a rural network of schoolhouses and burial grounds that define the historic social geography of Westford, Union, and the crossroads of Tinkerville. The presence of numerous small ponds like Morey Pond and Bissonnette Pond, alongside the larger Lake Chaffee, suggests a transition from early agrarian use to seasonal recreation.
