Highbridge House and Barn
New Ipswich Historical Society
Another mystery for our readers. This house and barn “may” be located near Highbridge. There is no information on the photo nor mention of ownership. The three windows on the barn are unique, maybe that might provide a clue.

Readers Corner
Reader Bob Boynton reminded me that there are two other rivers in New Ipswich besides the Souhegan
There are three (3) rivers in New Ipswich.
1. Souhegan River
2. North Branch Millers River
3. Gridley River
The Souhegan is a 4th order stream and the other two (2) are 3rd order streams.

Flood control dam 19 for Souhegan River
North Branch Millers River
The source of the North Branch Millers River is Mountain Pond in New Ipswich
Gridley River

I agree with you on the river photo
