The town was incorporated in 1779 from Litchfield, Woodbury, Kent and New Milford. The town straddles the Shepaug River Valley, and its steep hills never permitted any but limited agriculture. In the early 1800s the hills were worked primarily for marble, but also for iron ore and even white clay. The Shepaug Railroad, in service from 1872 until 1949, brought the town summer visitors from New York and transported the goods of light industries producing items such as sleighs, buttons, and knives.
