1964 Map of Williamsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Williamsburg and Haydenville anchor the Mill River valley during this mid-century revision, showing a landscape defined by its transition from industrial river power to a wooded, residential character. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Boston and Maine railroad line terminating at the Williamsburg Station, a focal point for the local economy. Educational and social pillars like the Dunphy Sch and the Williamsburg Rod and Gun Club are clearly marked, while the surrounding hills—including Unquomonk Hill and Horse Mountain—are deeply etched with brooks and reservoirs that supplied water to nearby population centers. To the north, the terrain becomes more isolated within the Conway State Forest, where features like Joe Herrick Gulf and Cricket Hill Cem speak to the area’s rugged topography and early settlement history. The eastern flats of the Great Swamp provide a sharp contrast to the steep elevations of Spruce Hill and Mt Esther.
