Congdon River : ウィキペディア英語版 | Congdon River The Congdon River is a river in the U.S. state of Rhode Island, in the Big River State Management Area and immediately south. It flows approximately 3 km (2 mi). There are three dams along the river's length: at Rathbon Pond, Money Swamp Pond, and at Millbrook Pond.〔(Governor's Task Force on Dam Safety and Maintenance – Final Report, January 2001 )〕 The river's crossing at Congdon Mill Road is the former site of a grist mill (in 1878) and later a sawmill (in 1806), and is named after Joseph Congdon, the mill's owner.〔Denison, Frederic, ''Westerly (Rhode Island) and its witnesses'', J.A. & R.A. Reid, 1878〕 ==Course== The river is formed in Exeter from the confluence of two unnamed streams (one leading from Millbrook Pond and one leading from Money Swamp Pond). From there, it flows to Rathbon Pond, then into West Greenwich where it converges with the Nooseneck River to form the Big River.
