The PowWow was the source of power that made Amesbury a desirable spot of a town. Anthony and his friends decided to settle there because of it. Here are pictures of what it is like, today.
A modern building has been built hanging right over the river! This building had been a factory, but it is now a group of shops and restaurants. |

This is a pedestrian bridge spanning the mighty PowWow as it curves it's way toward flowing under Main St. |
|
Here you can see the oldest bricks at the bottom of the builing. This building has been built on top of an older structure. |

This is the PowWow as it comes down from it's confining bed and through what had been the millrace. (I think) |
|
Here is a 'modern' addition built right out over the mighty PowWow. It almost spans it! From the front, or street side, you can't even tell the river is there. |

I think there were, at one time, several of these signs explaining the area, part of a 'do-it-yourself-tour'. |
