The Town of Gill offers education, recreation and quiet, peaceful living
opportunities within its 15 square miles. The rural character of the town
has been preserved, even though the last 50 years has seen a transition
from a farming community to a bedroom community. The fewer than 1600
inhabitants live mostly in single-family homes, although there is one
development of condominiums.
Gill is the home of the presently co-ed Northfield Mount Hermon School,
known in the last century as the Mount Hermon School for Boys. The
preparatory school has a good reputation for both academic and sports
programs. The town's location on the Connecticut River brings both
state-owned and private boating facilities and the opportunity to compete
for the largest bass in the river. Barton Cove, just off the Mohawk Trail,
has camping facilities, and nearby, on a small island in the river, a pair
of American Bald Eagles have been nesting for the last five years. River
boat rides pass under the newly restored historic French King Bridge, which
was recently granted a Preservation Award from the Massachusetts Historical
Commission and which overlooks one of the most beautiful scenic areas in
Massachusetts, especially during the foliage season. There is a nine-hole
golf course which holds several tournaments during the year, horse riding
facilities along quiet country roads, and in winters with a lot of snow,
snowmobiling on the open fields.
In 1993, Gill celebrated its 200th birthday with events scheduled
throughout the year, including a Bicentennial Parade.
Northwestern Massachusetts, bordered by Northfield on the northeast, the
Connecticut river on the east and south, Greenfield on the west, and Bernardston
on the northwest. Gill is 7 miles east of Greenfield, 36 miles north of
Springfield, and 95 miles northwest of Boston.
