Newport

Tucked along the Sugar River in western New Hampshire, Newport is a place whose character is shaped by its river-valley setting amid wooded hills. As the seat of Sullivan County, it serves as a civic and commercial centre for neighbouring communities, with a compact Main Street running through the town centre. The Sugar River supported local water-powered industry, and its course remains central to Newport’s geography. Newport Opera House, dating from 1886 and housed in the town hall, is an important downtown landmark and performance venue. Forest, small towns and distinctly changing seasons define the wider inland New England setting. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across New Hampshire.
