Country Store Museum
housing the 'Historian's collection of post 1870 manufactured goods in a setting of fixtures from the old Niantic Store. It exhibits a late 19th century general store where local families shopped for necessities. Nostalgia pervades this museum with its clutter. Yard goods, crockery, ground coffee, tobacco, clothing, garden implements and an apothecary shop surround a pot belly stove where a friendly game of checkers could be played next to the spittoon.
