The drumlins and eskers formed at its melting edge are landmarks of the Lower Connecticut River Valley. |

It is a land of undulating hills and hollows, dips and drumlins, rivers, inlets, estuaries and lakes, dotted with homes and barns. |
About 10,000 years ago, boulders and soils trapped beneath retreating ice sheets were moulded into drumlins, and it is believed there is an island for each day of the year. |

It is believed that many drumlins were formed when glaciers advanced over and altered the deposits of earlier glaciers. |
