1954 Map of Winchendon

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The industrial and riverine character of northern Worcester County is captured here along the Millers River, where water power once fueled numerous mill ponds and satellite settlements. The village of Winchendon serves as the central hub, surrounded by outlying communities like Winchendon Springs, Waterville, and Bullardville. The landscape is defined by its transition from the New Hampshire border at Lake Monomonac south toward the protected lands of the Otter River State Forest. Local history is preserved in the locations of the Riverside Cem and Marvin Sch, while the Boston and Maine railroad tracks illustrate the transportation network that connected these manufacturing centers to larger markets. From the heights of Mt Pleasant to the lowlands of Lake Denison, the map provides a detailed look at a mid-century New England town balancing industry with its wooded surroundings.
