Stonington
Maine coastal village
Stonington is a place name shared by several New England towns, most notably in Connecticut and Maine.
The Connecticut town is a historic seaport on Long Island Sound; the Maine village is a fishing community on Deer Isle.
Both retain New England coastal character—working harbors, colonial architecture, maritime heritage.
