Burrville, named after the Burr family members who

Burrville, named after the Burr family members who settled in the area in the 19th century, is located in the northeast section of Torrington. Though just a small village, it wasn’t short on amenities: Burrville was once home to saw, shingle and grist mills, a tannery, hammer and shoe shop, Borden’s condensed milk operation, taverns and brickyards, manufacturers of soap, castors, batting, roller skates, piano tops, buckles and furniture! Accessible via the Naugatuck Railroad, the village also had a post office, schoolhouse, a church and village hall and was later a stop for the trolley. Photos from the collection of the Torrington Historical Society.

Water Street was formerly known as Boarding House

Water Street was formerly known as Boarding House Hill due to the numerous boarding houses lining the road to accommodate the workers of Wolcottville Woolen Mill. This selection of images from the Torrington Historical Society’s collection shows how Water Street evolved over the past 150 years. Enjoy! Photo captions: Image 1: boarding houses on the south side of Water Street where the Morrison Hardware building and Brooks, Todd and McNeil stand today (prior to Prospect Street crossing Water Street).
