Glenville - A Village Steeped in Heritage

On the western edge of Greenwich, Glenville offers a charming blend of historic roots and community spirit. Once known as Sherwood’s Bridge, this former mill village was built around the power of the Byram River, and many of its original architectural gems still stand today, including Romanesque Revival and Queen Anne–style buildings in its historic district.

Harris Golf Course, affectionately known as “The Griff”. It’s not technically in Glenville, but it’s just a short drive away in western Greenwich.
