WELCOME TO PaWtUcket Slater mill National Historic landmark The name Pawtucket is derived from the natural waterfall at main Street, which in the Algonquin language means “at the falls.” Here the Indigenous tribes, the Narragansett and the Pokanoket, gathered to fish for salmon and shad. So plentiful it is said that one could walk on the backs of the fish. Slater mill Plein Air @barbarahealypainter 62 TOuRBlACkSTONE.COm
