Puzzle: Marlow, New Hampshire
Size: 500 pieces
Dimensions: 33.02cm x 48.26cm
Producer: Kodacolor
Location: Marlow is a town in Cheshire County, New Hampshire, United States. The population was 747 at the 2000 census. Marlow is home to Honey Brook State Forest.
Marlow bears many marks of glacial action, and minerals are still found here. A woodworking industry once used the water power of the Ashuelot River to produce tools, furniture and wooden buckets from lumber cut nearby. By 1859, when the population was 708, there were seven sawmills, a gristmill, a carriage shop, a tin shop, and two tanneries. Although the town’s undulating surface is somewhat rocky, farmers produced hay, grain and vegetables. [Wiki]
