Say and Brooke!
Historical nuggets from this plaque include:
1) The town today known as Old Saybrook goes way back to 1635.
2) It was originally known as Say-​Brooke; named for a Mr. Say and a Mr. Brooke.
3) Say-​Brooke was the first settlement on the South shore of New England
This is a one-​sided marker from the CT Historical Commission in the familiar white lettering on a blue background. It’s located on a small but very pretty village green with benches near 315 Main Street in Old Saybrook.
The marker was dedicated in 1971 and is in very good condition.
