Town of Fairfield

Somerset CountyFairfield, formerly Fairfield Plantation, is the southernmost town in Somerset County, incorporated on June 18, 1788. The early name for the main village was Kendall's Mills after the prominent resident General William Kendall.

The northern rural portion of the town is well-known for The Apple Farm, a popular destination in the fall for apples and pumpkins alike.

Civil War General and Governor Sheldon Connor was a prominent resident of the town. The Hinckley School, founded in 1889 by George W. Hinckley, and its L. C. Bates Museum, has been a major community institution for more than a century.
