PULPIT HARBOR EXHIBIT
NORTH HAVEN HISTORICAL SOCIETY, 2017
Throughout the second half of the nineteenth century, Pulpit Harbor Village was the epicenter of North Haven's population, due largely to thriving fisheries and nearby prosperous farms. Fishing schooners filled the deep, protected harbor located on the island's northern shore. Homes, boat shops, fish houses, a school, two fish processing plants, four mills, a post office and five stores lined the harbor. Now, most of these building are gone, roads have been diverted, and trees have grown in, leaving the present appearance of the area to contrast drastically with the landscapes shown in old photographs.
