Geocache Description:


Here is another edition in our puzzle series providing you history of various towns in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

N 41° 48.ABC W 071° 06.[D+2]EF


The present town of Berkley, then belonging to the neighboring towns of Dighton and Taunton, was first settled in 163F.

It was officially incorporated as a separate town in 1A35.

The town was named for the philosopher and bishop George Berkeley, who was born in 16B5 and who lived in Newport, Rhode Island from 1728 to 173C.

Berkley's old Town Hall, a two-story white clapboard building located on Berkley Common, was built in 18D9.

When a new Town Hall was built across the street in 2E15, the old Town Hall became home to the Berkley Historical Society.


The final cache is a winter-friendly bison tube in Dighton Rock State Park. Please note that the gate for the park closes daily at 4 P.M. Hope you enjoy.
