While traveling the countryside by motorcycle we saw the sign for the Nathan Hale School House and decided to stop in. The school house is located on a hilltop behind an old stone church. The two curators were very knowledgeable and were more than happy to answer any questions we might have. The exhibits were interesting and very well done. It would probably take about a half hour to read and absorb the history provided in this little schoolhouse. We had a lengthy and enjoyable conversation with both the curators. During our conversation the female curator mentioned that she was actually a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She said she loved history – in particular sharing that knowledge with others. We were the fortunate recipients of that knowledge! We spent about an hour conversing with these two very interesting individuals – it was time well spent.

The road sign was all it took for us to make a slight detour from Gillette Castle to see the schoolhouse and salute a patriot. The quiet hilltop location, high above the Connecticut River also speaks of the famous Charter Oak tree that still stands on this site.

It looks like not much from the road, you go up a winding drive sort of behind a little church and park near a portapotty but what a fabulous view from their park like setting. We go at least once a summer and I think it's only open on weekends. It's a lovely setting and we've never seen more than a handful of people there at the same time we were there. The school house is interesting, exhibits nicely done. There is always a friendly docent there to explain anything and the kids always love writing something using the quill pen and ink. Did it mention the fantastic view of the river? It almost feels like a private park. You can tour the school house in about 10 minutes, 15 if you read all the exhibits but then the real beauty of this place is to go and sit outside under a shade tree and read a good book while munching on an apple. A perfect afternoon.
