Located here were the Alger Garrison (built 1651 by brothers Andrew and Arthur Alger, attacked and abandoned in 1675, both men killed), and Burnham's Garrison (built before 1675) at Blue Point. Richard Foxwell's Garrison (1650 ?) was located on Cascade (Foxwell) Brook, part of the Blue Point settlement.
Garrison (architecture) A garrison is an architectural style of house, typically two stories with the second story overhanging in the front. The traditional ornamentation is four carved drops (pineapple, strawberry or acorn shape) below the overhang. Garrisons usually have an exterior chimney at the end.
