Mill Pond Falls, Natural waterfall in Newington, Connecticut, United States
Mill Pond Falls cascades down 12 feet in Mill Pond Park, with a red wooden footbridge positioned above the flowing waters.
The waterfall powered a sawmill built in 1860, supporting the local economy through the production of pipestaves for whiskey barrels.
The falls serve as the central element on the Newington Town Seal and host the annual Waterfall Festival each autumn.
Visitors can access the falls through paved walking paths around Mill Pond, with benches and an observation area providing multiple viewing points.
Local residents promote this waterfall as the smallest natural waterfall in the United States, with a flow rate of 4 gallons per second.
