Granville history
Granville, a township in northeastern Washington County which includes the village bearing the same name, is located near the Vermont border and traversed by the Mettowee River. The first land patent in this region was granted in 1764 to David Barry, Erick Sutherland, and Alexander and Thomas Menzies; settlement was nevertheless sporadic before the 1790s, as land purchases were hindered on account of title disputes, the Revolutionary War, and ongoing boundary issues with Vermont.
Granville attractions
Popular attractions in Granville include the Pember Library and Museum of Natural History, the Slate Valley Museum, Hicks Orchard, and the Mettowee River. Hicks Orchard is the oldest U-pick orchard in New York State, having been established in 1905.
