Synopsis
Excerpt from A Sketch of Norwich: Including Notes of a Survey of the Town
The first settlement was made soon after at Bean Hill, (now called on the Map, Westville.) Afterwards, and for a number of years, the principal business was done at what is now locally called the Town: but subsequently it was found more convenient to do business nearer the Wharves,' and that section' of'the town now holding the City Charter began to be the chief seat of mercantile Operations. But, as was the natural consequence of several rival Villages in one town, few permanent improvements were made until within a few years.
