Explore Franklinville - Town Guide

Explore Deep River scenery and the town’s textile heritage.

Franklinville's identity is closely tied to the Deep River and its former textile mills. The historic district and Franklinsville Manufacturing Company landmark help explain that history; the mill building is not open for tours.

Riverside Park, Faith Rock and the rail-trail corridor offer ways to explore the landscape. Deep River Folk School adds craft and practical-skills learning. Franklinville Diner is a local food stop noted in the tourism guide for its grilled vanilla pound cake and oatmeal cream pies; check the current menu before making a special trip.

Before you go: This town guide suggests separate stops. Check each destination for current hours, admission, access and event dates.
