About this map

Mount Agamenticus anchors the interior of this coastal landscape, a prominent landmark overlooking a network of ponds such as Chases Pond and Folly Pond. The mid-1950s coastline shows a transition between traditional fishing harbors and burgeoning summer destinations, from the rocky shores of Ogunquit down to York Harbor. Along the Piscataqua River, the heavy military presence is evident at the Portsmouth Naval Base and several reservations, including U S Naval Res (Fort Foster) and U S Mil Res Fort Dearborn.
