South County is home to Rhode Island's largest town, Coventry, with an area of 65 square miles which was purchased
from the Narragansett Indian Tribe. Steeped in history, Coventry's most
famous citizen, General Nathanael Greene, at the age of 33 served as
the youngest second-in-command to General George Washington during the
Revolutionary War. Tour his homestead that was restored and refurbished
in the period style. Walk, bike or roller blade on the paved
path along the Coventry Greenway or the Trestle Trail from
Coventry to Connecticut.
While in Southern Rhode Island, visit Summit Village, a picturesque setting of colonial homes,
village churches, stone walls, gardens and the Summit General Store.
There is so much to do, so bring the family and enjoy the adventure of
Coventry!
