Sunken within Lake Buel is a 15-foot-wide stone wall built by Native Americans as an irrigation system, to dam off part of the lake.

One of the first Berkshire towns to be settled in the 18th century, New Marlborough is historic but not old-fashioned, sophisticated but never pretentious. Though just under 50 square miles, New Marlborough contains five villages: Clayton, Hartsville, Mill River, New Marlborough Village, and Southfield. Its scenic green is rimmed by a historic village center that buzzes with activity, especially in the warmer months. From its lakes to its forests and waterfalls, New Marlborough is relaxed New England living at its most beautiful.
