The hamlet of Southold is the site of the original 1640 settlement. Southold’s First Presbyterian Church is the oldest English Church Society in the State of New York and many of the early settlers can be found in its adjacent graveyard.

Southold Hamlet is also the home to the Southold Indian Museum, the Custer Institute and Observatory, and the Southold Historical Society which owns and maintains a museum complex consisting of nine historic buildings on the Main Road, east of Maple Lane.

The Hortons Point Lighthouse on Long Island Sound, which warns of a dangerous shoreline was commissioned by George Washington but wasn’t built until 1857. The Southold Park District owns the lighthouse and ground and Historical Society has a maritime museum on the main floor of the keepers quarters.

Settled by descendants of Southold’s founders, this little farming hamlet was first known as West Southold Plantation. For a short while, in the mid-nineteenth century it was called Hermitage because of an elderly recluse who lived on Peconic Lane. But for most of its existence the hamlet has been named Peconic after the Native American word for Small Plantation.

Near the rail road tracks stands what was the Jefferson store, at the heart of the village. It was built in 1855 by Captain Horace Prince, owner of a lumber yard in Peconic. When President Grover Cleveland was in office he appointed Jessie Lewis Case, Postmaster of Peconic. The second floor of the store was a hall where plays and dances were held and it served as a kind of community center for the hamlet.

North on Mill Lane was the Old Mill, built in 1841, made use of both water and wind power. The mill was wrecked by a terrible November storm in 1898, which tore the arms of the windmill off and ripped open the roof the structure.

To the south on Peconic Bay the land between Broadwaters and Hutchinson’s creeks is known as Indian Neck. Once the site of an artist colony during the early 20th century, Indian Neck was the home of famous and influential painters such as the Wiles family and the Prellwitzs.
