Check out Little Compton homes and learn that the town common is the only town common in Rhode Island. Since 1677, when land was designated for the town common, it has been used as a center for religious and social activities.
Little Compton was incorporated in 1682 as a part of Plymouth Colony after it was first settled by a group including Captain Benjamin Church. Little Compton was transferred to Rhode Island, under Royal Decree, in 1746.
The original inhabitants of Little Compton were the "Sagonate" or "Sakonnet" Indians. They fought alongside the settlers against King Philip, Sachem of the Wampanoags. King Philip waged war against the white settlers. The southern end of the town bordering the Atlantic is still known as "Sakonnet” and it was here that Captain Church cleared the area for settlement.
For a time, the Little Compton settlement enjoyed peace and prosperity until the Revolution when the British occupied Newport. Although small groups from the British garrison invaded Little Compton numerous times, the settlers fought back. At the Taggart House, it is said that the British raiders were "bushwacked” by the settlers.
