Located on Frost Hill Road, next to the Meeting House Cemetery, is the site of the original Meeting House which was built during the period 1770-89. When the town began to develop along the river valley and the center of the town moved from its original location, around the mid-1800s, the building was abandoned and fell into disrepair. Eventually the Meeting House was damaged by storms, leading to its being dismantled over 130 years ago. An historic marker stone was placed there to identify the location, and woods grew up around the site. The drystone structure of the old Town Pound is also located on this land, a short distance from the historic marker stone. This location is rich in history. Spend some time here and in Meeting House Cemetary (AKA Old Center Cemetary). There is an abundance of Revolutionary war graves here. Some of the graves here date back to the early 1700's. See if you can find one of the decendents of "John Rogers The Martyr".
