Turkey River (New Hampshire)

Turkey River (New Hampshire)

The Turkey River is a 6.1 mile long (9.9 km) [ [http://www.granit.sr.unh.edu New Hampshire GRANIT state geographic information system] ] stream located in southern New Hampshire in the United States. It is a tributary of the Merrimack River, which flows to the Gulf of Maine.

The Turkey River begins at the outlet of Little Turkey Pond in Concord, New Hampshire. The river travels southeast through the campus of St. Paul's School, winding through the outskirts of Concord, and entering Bow before joining the Merrimack near the junction of Interstate 93 and Interstate 89. In May, 2006, record amounts of rainfall over two days caused the Turkey River to flood the campus of St. Paul's School, forcing the school year to be ended prematurely.
