Explore Charlestown
Most of Rhode Island’s streams, ponds, and lakes drain into three major rivers—the Blackstone, the Pawtuxet, and the Pawcatuck. The Blackstone and Pawtuxet Rivers flow into Narragansett Bay, while the Pawcatuck River flows into Little Narragansett Bay and then on to the Atlantic Ocean. Historically, the Blackstone, the Pawtuxet, and the Pawcatuck Rivers were epicenters for Rhode Island’s water-powered mills; however, they eventually fell out of use as power sources shifted and industry changed. Rhode Island’s industrial river legacy remains a focal point in its history, as evidenced in its cities and towns—such as Hopkins Mill in Foster—and at federally recognized historical sites—such as Slater Mill in Pawtucket as part of the Blackstone River Valley Natural Heritage Corridor.
