At this point began the so called Hazen Road, running northerly 54 miles to Hazen's Notch in Westfield. Recommended to General Washington by General Jacob Bayley, built by General Bayley as far as Cabot in 1776, and completed by General Moses Hazen in 1779. It is now re-christened the Bayley-Hazen Military Road.
