The Morristown Green
|
 During
the 1700s, the Green was used as a pasture
for animals, and as a training ground for
the local militia. In 1755, a log cabin was
constructed on the western corner of the
Green to serve as the town´s courthouse and
jail. A pillory and a scaffold were also
located on the Green, and numerous
executions took place here until 1833. The
Civil War monument, which stands at the far
northeast corner of the Green, was erected
in 1871. It is entitled "Soldier at Rest"
and honors the men who lost their lives in
the Civil War from 1861-1865. The Town Green
has been the focal point of the community
for more than 250 years.
