Waterman Tavern

The Waterman Tavern is a historic house and tavern at 283 Maple Valley Road, near Whaley's Hollow in Coventry, Rhode Island. The 2-1/2 story wood frame house, five bays wide with a central chimney, was built sometime before 1747 by John Waterman, who in that year was licensed to operate a tavern on the premises. The site was advantageously located on what was then the main road between Providence and Plainfield, Connecticut. The tavern was a center of civic discourse, and town meetings were regularly held there until 1835.
