Map of French Long Lots |
| This close-up of a Canadian 1:50,000 topographic map clearly
shows the typical French long lot farms. I have added the yellow lines to
show how the cuts in the forests and the spacing of the houses and barns
along the red road can be used to identify the exact outline of individual farms. Look at an
example of a
house (a purple circle) and
barn (a blue circle). |
