From introduction: "The Bellows Falls Neighborhood Historic District is a living narrator of the history of Bellows Falls Village and the Town of Rockingham. In the type, style, and age of its buildings, the district tells a story that's been evolving for almost 250 years. The story of this neighborhood is deeply entwined with the commercial, industrial, and residential development of the surrounding village and town... In the building descriptions and thumbnail histories that follow, you'11 see how particular architectural features represent different styles, and how individual houses relate portions of the overall story of the district and the Village. The entire district is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.It is not a static architectural museum, but a living and vibrant neighborhood of which its residents are proud."
