Located in Newport County

If you travel East from Little Compton Commons, then North on West Main Road, you will shortly arrive in Tiverton Four Corners, a wonderful intersection which offers all the charm of a quaint New England village. It is a unique place where visitors can eat homemade ice cream and gourmet sandwiches and browse through more than a dozen small shops, a few antique shops and four art galleries.

Early settlers in this part of Rhode Island passed a law that you could build a tavern only at a four-way intersection. Then they made sure there weren't any except the one that gave Tiverton Four Corners it's name!

Four Corners offers a mix of art activities that range from the avant-garde to the folksy. An Arts and Education Center hosts summer concerts and offers classes for adults and children. There are a number of distinguished historic houses at the Four Corners which make it an area worth visiting.
