Nooseneck River

The Nooseneck River is a river in the U.S. state of Rhode Island. It flows approximately 5.5 miles (8.9 km).[1] There are three dams along the river's length.[2]

Course

[edit]

The river rises on the south side of Hammitt Hill in Coventry, then flows southeast through West Greenwich where it converges with the Congdon River to form the Big River.
