1849 Woodstock
Windsor Co. This is the shire town of the county. Woodstock is well watered by Queechy River and its branches.

The soil of the town is generally very fertile, with a pleasant surface of hills and vales. The agricultural productions are large and valuable.

"Woodstock Green," so called, is a beautiful village. It is the seat of a flourishing country trade, and contains many very handsome buildings. The court house, planned and built under the supervision of Ammi B. Young, Esq., a native architect of great promise, and the architect of the custom house in Boston, is one of the most chaste and classical structures in New England.

The South Village is neat and pleasant; it is about five miles from the "Green."
