Bolton, Rural town in Tolland County, United States
The town of Bolton spreads across 14.7 square miles of Connecticut landscape, featuring residential areas interspersed with open spaces at 222 meters elevation.
Bolton, incorporated in October 1720, originated from an area formerly known as Hartford Mountains and was named after its English counterpart near Manchester.
The Bolton Historical Society maintains multiple preservation sites, including Rose's Farm where French military commander Comte de Rochambeau established a camp during the American Revolution.
Residents access municipal services through the Town Clerk's office, which manages building regulations, tax payments, and waste management programs.
During the 18th century, Bolton's quarries produced high-quality schist stone that stone carvers used extensively for creating tombstones throughout the region.
