Cornish New Hampshire

Established in 1763, Cornish was once called Mast Camp because it was the shipping point for all the tall ship masts floated down the Conner River by the English. Cornish, located in Sullivan County east of Windsor, was incorporated in 1765 and named after Sir Samuel Cornish, a distinguished English admiral of the Royal Navy. A century ago the town was a famous art colony.

Places to visit include The Cornish Art Colony Museum, Mount Sunapee State Park, Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site and four covered bridges -- Blacksmith Shop Bridge, Cornish-Windsor Bridge, Dingleton Hill Bridge and Blow-Me-Down Bridge.

Comments: Downtown traffic seems busy. We drove to here not long ago. There seem to be sudden storms towards evening. Housing costs sure have jumped since our last visit. This place has lots of grumpy folks pumping gas. Whether you're an artist yourself, make a point of visiting Cornish Art Colony Museum. You won't be disappointed.
