Can Anyone tell me if there are any villages in the new england area that have the charles dickens feel to it. Like a gazebo downtown, water, old stores that kind of look like the buildings you would see in the christmas villages.

Littleton. Formerly a farm town, so less of a downtown, but there's a gazebo in Fay Park!

Stockbridge, MA, in the Berkshires. The Norman Rockwell museum is there, he painted this painting of Main St. that you've probably seen. It still looks like that.


Also, next to Littleton is Groton. A very picturesque, quaint New England town.
