Overview
Description
The historic Sisson house, set on banks of the Konkapot River, was built in the late 1700's as Mill River's first schoolhouse. Years later, John Sisson built and donated a new school to the town and in exchange he was given the house, which he then moved across the street to where it now sits at the site of the original 1750 grist mill.
