333-C Birch Hill Rd, New Durham, NH 03855  

In 1936 a young man bought the site that is now known as Birch Hill Summer Camp. He thought it was the perfect setting for his dream, a coeducational camp for children. The forests, the lake, the mountain top setting, and the contour of the land added to enhance the camp. From there, he carved out the picturesque camp. The beautiful winding trail to the beach, the circle of the pines, tree-lined paths and twin pines in front of each cabin are examples of how he planted and nurtured the land for the future.

History of Farmington, NH

Abenaki Indians once used the Cochecho River for transportation, and had a camping ground on Meetinghouse Hill, where they built birch bark canoes. Otherwise, the river valley was wilderness, through which Indians from the north traveled after crossing Lake Winnipesaukee on their way to raid settlements in and around Dover. To stop the raids, in 1721 the Colonial Assembly in Portsmouth approved construction of a fort at the foot of the lake, with a soldiers' road built from Dover to supply it. In 1722, Bay Road was surveyed and completed. Along its course the town of Farmington would grow. The settlement began as the Northwest Parish of Rochester, which was chartered in 1722. The last Indian attack in the general region occurred in 1748, but by 1749, Native Americans had disappeared from warfare and disease. Farmers cultivated the rocky soil, and gristmills used water power of streams to grind their grain. Sawmills cut the abundant timber, and the first frame house at the village was built in 1782. In 1790, Jonas March from Portsmouth established a store, behind which teamsters unloaded on his dock the lumber he traded.
