Landmarks in Ancient Dover, New Hampshire by Mary P. Thompson, Durham, N.H. ©1892, Printed by the Republican Press Association, Concord, N.H. LANDMARKS: Huckleberry Hill. NAMES: TUTTLE, John; Huckleberry Hill. This is a high ridge on Dover neck, about three quarters of a mile below the bridge across Little John’s creek. It is mentioned the 5th, 10 mo., 1659, when it was ordered that huckleberry hill, which had been laid out for a sheep pasture, should be divided for a public training place for the township of Dover. "The way which doth lead from huckleberry hill to Cochecho" is mentioned in a conveyance of land from the town to John Tuttle, March 5, 1674-5. This hill commands an extensive and magnificent view across the Newichawannock on one side, and Back river on the other. And far down the Long Reach of the Pascataqua may be seen the spires of Portsmouth rising beyond the fair shores of Newington, with beautiful hills and gleaming waters in every direction.
