Grafton, now best known for its charm and its cheese, was originally founded as Thomlinson, but renaming rights were auctioned in 1791. The high bidder, who reportedly offered "five dollars and a jug of rum," changed the name to Grafton after his home town of Grafton, Massachusetts. Possibly as a result of having celebrated a bit too much with the rum (some say it was hard cider), the money was never collected, but the new name remained.
It may be small, but boy is it mighty. In 2006, Putney passed a resolution endorsing the impeachment of President George W. Bush.
Hit the designer outlets and more in the lovely town of Manchester.
