DescriptionMap of Stamford and Greenwich, Connecticut, and the surrounding area, from the border of Massachusetts to the north, Norfolk to the east, and the border of New York to the west. Colors, lines and symbols are used to denote stratified drift, rock outcroppings, elevation, woods, ground water, dug or driven wells, drilled wells, and springs. There are numbers next to the wells and springs that correspond to numbers used in tables (not provided). Blue is used to denote water, including rivers, reservoirs, lakes and ponds. Local roads are depicted, with black squares probably representing buildings. The Central New England Railroad and the Berkshire Division of the Housatonic Railroad run through the area.
