Named after the beautiful Dorset county in England, Dorset is a quintessential New England town that was established in 1761. Several of the businesses in town have been operating continuously since the town was founded, including the Dorset Union Store and the iconic Dorset Inn. The small downtown shops sell locally made handicrafts, including quilts and custom wooden signs, and a farmer's market is held every Sunday all throughout the year. The town is also home to the oldest marble quarry in the entire country, which is now a popular local swimming hole during the summer.
