Directions
The Chester Historical Society holds most of its functions at its main building at 9 West Main Street, Chester, CT. This building is affectionately known to locals as "The Mill." |
 |
Chester is located on the Connecticut River about 10 miles North of Old Saybrook. If traveling from the North or North West, take Route 9 South from I-91 south of Hartford. If traveling from the South West or East, take Route 9 North from I-95.
Take Exit 6 off Route 9. This is Route 148. From the South, take a right off the exit ramp. From the North, take a left. Follow the signs to the Town Center.

The Mill is located in the center of Chester on Route 148 - West Main Street. Our driveway is on the right, just before you enter the Town Center. |

Parking
The Mill has limited parking. When parking is available, it is usually restricted for handicap use. When we have a large event, we sometimes use our small parking lot for a tent. In this case, there is NO parking on the premises.
Public parking is available
- in the Town Center
- just up West Main Street at the Public Library
- when available, just next door to the Library at the United Church
- at 4 Water Street behind the stone building
- farther down Water street across from the bank
- off Maple Street
Please note that parking is not permitted in the driveway to our building. This is a shared driveway that does not belong to us. It must be kept clear at all times for the residents who live further down the drive. |
