Lochmere Archeological District

Lochmere’s history is the history of human use of the Winnipesaukee River. Navigable by canoe, the river served as a major transportation and communications route and, with its falls and rapids, as a source of food and water power. Thirteen archeological sites record nine millennia of prehistory by Native Americans, and eighteen sites relate directly to the domestic and industrial life of early mill owners and the early industrial period of the Village of Lochmere.
