The Shrewsbury Meeting House stands proudly
in our center, hosting many local functions. It
houses a beautiful Johnson organ, given to the
town in 1868 by Henry Smith, and is on the
National Historic Organ Society Register. Almost
frozen in time, the center remains abuzz with
agriculture, producing milk, grass-fed beef,
maple syrup, and vegetables in its beautiful
open meadows.
Our recently restored Brown Covered Bridge
(damaged by flooding from Irene) stands proud,
and this area remains a nice place to fish or
have a picnic.
The Northam settlement was large, as a result
of its close proximity to the Coolidge Forest,
engaging in lumber harvesting which has since
ended. There are more than 4,000 acres of state
forest to snowmobile and cross-country ski. The
Appalachian Trail, along with the Blue Trail, cross
the town. You can climb Shrewsbury Peak and
look across at Killington – stop by Pierce’s store,
grab a snack, and explore a touch of the past
and many memories.
Our Historical Society is housed in the
Methodist Church building, located in
Cuttingsville, and is open upon request
and on Sundays in good weather.
A day exploring Shrewsbury and taking
in its panoramic views is a sure way to
replenish the soul.
