Coginchaug River Description

The Coginchaug River in Connecticut, with a watershed of 39 square miles (101 km²) incorporating forests, pastures, farmland, industrial, and commercial areas, is the predominant tributary of the Mattabesset River. It flows north from Guilford, Connectiucut then into Durham, Connecticut through Middlefield and meets the Mattabesset in Middletown, just short of where it flows into the Connecticut River[1]. The name, Coginchaug, comes from the local Native American name for the Durham area, and it was the original name for the town. It has been said to mean "The Great Swamp", and is a reference to the meadows found in the central part of town.
