Riverhead Hotel
Riverhead Hotel (Thomas William Deacon, proprietor) Riverhead. This hotel, would, in every respect, do credit to a much more populous place than Riverhead. The host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs Deacon, are noted for their courtesy, and for their studious regard to everything which bears upon the comfort of visitors to their house, which is situated close to the river, and within a minute's walk of the boat landing.
