History
5
The Town of Nottingham was created by a Royal Charter in 1722, and when a plan of the town was completed in 1724, Nottingham Square was laid out with house lots and the intersecting streets Bow, Fish, King, and North. The town's first school, blockhouse, and later meetinghouse were built on this summit. It was the site of militia drills in 1775 and the home of four Revolutionary War generals. For more than a century, Nottingham Square served as the center of the town's business and social life and remains common land for all.
