Enfield is a town in Penobscot County, with 1,435 people at the 2020 census.
KNOWOL made this map in 2026 from public survey data and gave it the look of an old atlas. The Census Bureau measures the town at 33.00 square miles, 5.26 of them water, and its files give the roads and the town line. United States Geological Survey elevation data shades the ground, which has a listed elevation of 210 feet.
Cold Stream
Enfield was first settled about 1820 on the east bank of the Penobscot River, and it was first called Cold Stream. It was incorporated on January 31, 1835. Three state routes, 6, 116 and 155, cross the Penobscot together on the Howland-Enfield Bridge, a five-span truss bridge just below the river’s meeting with the Piscataquis, and come into town past a row of businesses to U.S. Route 2. From there Route 155 heads east alone, reaches the town center and turns north as Enfield Road, skirting the west end of Cold Stream Pond on its way to Lincoln.

The pond
Cold Stream Pond covers the eastern side of town, and Enfield has a large seasonal population, with many cottages on the pond. Private roads run off Route 155 to the houses along the shore, and another road leads to the Cold Stream Pond Recreation Area and Morgan Beach. There’s a public boat launch on Old Hatchery Road off State Route 188. A ridge pinches the pond in two, a smaller northern basin and a larger southern one, and Smelt Brook brings in water from Upper Cold Stream Pond and Little Round Pond in Lincoln. Lake trout native to the pond spawn in Webb Cove, in its southeast corner, and feed on the rainbow smelt that spawn in Smelt Brook; Atlantic salmon were brought to the pond in 1876.
The pond spills out at its southwest corner into Cold Stream, which runs 5 miles south to the Passadumkeag River, 2 miles above the Penobscot. The Passadumkeag’s Penobscot name means “at the land beyond the gravel bar.” Beside the outlet, the Cobb State Fish Hatchery uses the pond’s water to raise fish for stocking elsewhere.
