Glen Farm - Portsmouth, RI 
"The Front Porch of Portsmouth"

A reconstructed well house was built and donated in honor of Paul Chappell. The plaque reads "A True Son of Portsmouth, Paul M. Chappell, 1928 - 2000, He lived well, laughed often and loved much".

The Friends of the Brown House are part of Clements' Marketplace's donation program. Please save your Clements' register receipts for us! Bring them to any event at the Brown House or just mail them to Friends of the Brown House, 2200 East Main Rd., Portsmouth, 02871

On July 7, 2010 Preserve Portsmouth invited Ken Ayars, Chief of the RI DEM Division of Agriculture to an informal lunch gathering on the front yard of the Brown House
