- Rocky Hill Meeting House
-

- Visit The Rocky Hill Meeting House, the best preserved example of an original 18th century meeting house interior in New England. Built in 1785, it replaced a c. 1715 meeting house for the West Parish of Salisbury and was strategically placed along the only road that crossed (via ferry) the swift Powow River and led travelers to the Salisbury Point area and onward towards Portsmouth. George Washington paused here to greet the townspeople on his northward journey in 1789. See also "Bicycle Tour of Amesbury Treasures" OPEN DOOR S (10-4)
