1893 Map of York

USGS Topo · Published 1904

About this map

York Village and Kittery anchor a coastal landscape defined by maritime industry and early tourism in the late nineteenth century. The coastline is dotted with critical navigation aids such as The Nubble Light and Whale's Back Light, marking the entrance to the busy Portsmouth Harbor. Inland, the terrain rises toward Mt Agamenticus and the headwaters of the York River, while the York Beach Railroad traces a path toward the shore, illustrating the era's growing connection between rail travel and seaside resorts.
