Plymouth Cordage Historical Society Meeting


The Plymouth Cordage Historical Society will meet at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 11, the regularly scheduled meeting held the second Wednesday of the month at Cordage Park.

The Society is devoted to studying and preserving artifacts and memories associated with the Plymouth Cordage Company (1824-1970). This was once the largest rope-making company in the world and the town’s largest employer, and was the focal point of the North Plymouth neighborhood that grew up around it.

A small Museum is maintained and is open to the public from noon to 4 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, and is accessed through the Tower Entrance at Cordage Park.
