The Area:
Royalston is a small town in the North Quabbin area of northwestern-central Massachusetts. It was named after Isaac Royall, a slaveholder and businessperson from Medford, Massachusetts who founded the town in a land deal in 1765. Most of the town’s land is forest and wetlands, and there are several reservations and wildlife management areas. Two notable reservations are the Tully Lake flood protection dam area in the very southwestern part of the town, and the Royalston Falls reservation in the northern section.
Royalston was the last territory in Worcester County to be parceled out by the colonial government through the early system of grants and charters. Originally called Royal-shire, in honor of one of the proprietors, Isaac Royal, the town was not settled until the first six families arrived in 1762, after the end of the French and Indian War. In 1765, the town was incorporated as Royalston, and by 1767 counted 40 families. Along with the rest of the region, the town experienced rapid growth in the years following the Revolutionary War, growing from 617 in 1776 to 1243 in 1800. Tanneries, grist, and sawmills were constructed to process the forest and agricultural products harvested from nearby hills and valleys.
The largest population center in the town is the village of South Royalston in the southeastern corner of the town. At the center of the south village are the town’s only store, a small convenience store and eatery serving breakfast and lunch. The historic center of Royalston is home to a small village that contains a very well preserved classic colonial New England town center and common. The center of town contains the town hall, post office, congregational church, and the town’s library.
