Scope and Contents

Located at the southeast corner of Torrington Road and Karl Street (at #65 Karl Street) this building was the District 5 (Harris Plains) Schoolhouse originally located in front of the American Legion Hall at #418 Bantam Road. It was moved behind the Litchfield school at the top of East Street in 1922-23 and used for one year for the kindergarten. When the school was torn down it was moved to the present site. One photograph shows the building at its Harris Plains site, and a color photograph from the 1990s shows it as a storage/garage building.
