Glocester RI Community Profile & History

Glocester, Rhode Island is located in northwestern Rhode Island. It is bordered on the north by Burrillville, on the east by Smithfield, on the south by Scituate and Foster, and on the west by Killingly and Putnam, Connecticut. The town is basically rural in nature, dotted throughout by lakes and ponds. Several of these bodies of water are part of the Providence Water Supply System.

Much of the northern portion of the town is set aside as state-owned parks and forests. The town's highest point, and the second highest in the state of Rhode Island, is Durfee Hill at 804 feet. Early in the 20th century, Glocester was immortalized by renowned Rhode Island writer H.P. Lovecraft. Entranced by the town in 1923, Lovecraft expressed its picturesque essence in the verse of "Selected Letters".

Early industry in Glocester consisted of farming, coal mining, lumber manufacturing, the manufacture of potash, forging, and the manufacture of cotton seed oil. Diverse industries such as cigar making, granite and marble quarrying, distilling, box making, hat manufacturing, and tin smithing have also been established over the centuries. Today, the town boasts a thriving business community of shops, restaurants, and services. The central villages of Chepachet and Harmony are particularly colorful, with numerous fine examples of historic architecture, antique shops, and fine dining.
