[ 30 ] First School Marker


Turn right on Old Route 6 just beyond the Truro town line; Take second right onto dirt road, passing under Power Lines twice; Proceed about 50 feet to Old King's Highway. Marker is about 20 feet to left on Old King's Highway.

You will be close to Wellfleet-Truro line and north of Black Pond.
A schoolhouse, “seating thirty two scholars,” was built here about 1798 to provide instruction to young people from Truro and Bound Brook Island.
