History

Located along the Mohawk Trail, Millers Falls was first established in 1824 as an agricultural community, named Grout’s Corner after first settler Martin Grout (1790–1865). In the 1860s, however, the local growth of railroads stimulated development, as the New London Northern Railroad bought the Amherst & Palmer railroad in 1864 and in 1866 extended its line to a connection with the Vermont & Massachusetts at Grout’s Corner. With this new railroad juncture, the abundant water power of the falls at Grout’s Corner provided a perfect place to establish mills. The village’s present name derives from the Millers Falls Manufacturing Company (later the Millers Falls Company), established on the Millers River in 1868, and famed for its fine hand tools.

The central portion of the village was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2021.
