Where the Waterfalls Are
East Concord sits in or near the Southern Uplands and the Merrimack Valley area of New Hampshire. Southern New Hampshire's falls are modest in height but rich in history. Rivers here powered textile mills and sawmills in the 1800s, and several named falls sit in or near town centers where dams and mill ruins remain. Wildcat Falls, in a conservation area in Hillsborough County, tumbles over a jumble of boulders through mixed forest. Cheshire and Sullivan counties along the Connecticut River valley hold small cascades in rolling hill country near Alstead, while Merrimack County's falls near Concord and Epsom lie on streams draining toward the Merrimack River.
