If you're looking for the picturesque view of a New England town, then Stark, on Route 110 is a site you should not miss. The beautiful white covered bridge and church set against the mountains and ledges forms a postcard scene that has been featured as the quintessential New England town for decades. Also not far from Stark Center is the historical site of the only World War II prisoner of war camp in New Hampshire. Only the foundations of a few bunk houses remain. The rest has been torn down and is overgrown with poplars and birches.
