Much of the day is spent in the Meeting House on top of the hill. All roads lead to it like the spokes of a wheel. It is the most impressive building in the town. ***Square built***, facing south, with a four-sided roof and a central turret. It is set on a platform of stone slabs, massive and time- worn.
