Harrisville, NH | A “Little Brick Mill Village” in Photographs
The brick mill village of Harrisville, NH is a historic gem, with one of the best general stores in New England. Here’s a look at Harrisville in summer, in photographs.
Just a few minutes drive from the Yankee Publishing offices in Dublin, New Hampshire lies the charming “little brick mill village” of Harrisville in the Monadnock hills of southwestern New Hampshire. Driving up the hill through Harrisville takes barely a minute, but during those few seconds, I always feel as if I’ve jumped into a storybook drawing set in bucolic, industrial 19th century New England. Harrisville claims to be the only industrial community of the early 19th century to endure in its original form, and I don’t doubt it.
