Factory Point Town Green is located in the heart of Manchester on Depot Street
near the intersection of Main Street. The nearby waterfall provides the perfect setting
for sitting on the grass and enjoying the sun or throwing a Frisbee with friends. The
town green hosts two historic items: a local history interpretative marker and a marble
monument from 1912 that was part of the
original Center Bridge. A post-and-beam,
slate-roofed bandstand over a marble
stage is the site of Manchester’s free
summer concert series.
Adams Park, located at the intersection
of Main Street and Center Hill Road,
just north of the downtown area
hosts the Manchester Farmers’ Market
each Thursday in the summer.
