Brief History
Many centuries ago, Wampanoag Indians inhabited the land known as W. Hartford today. At this time, the area was a prime location for hunting and fishing.

One of the 1st subdivisions in 1895 known as Stanley Farm ran along Farmington Ave. Through the years other subdivisions followed Elmwood in 1901, Sunset Farms in 1917, West Hill in the 1920’s and the development continues to the present day with Old Stone Crossing in 2004, Cranbrook in 2010 and the latest subdivision on East Maxwell Dr in 2016. Over the years, W. Hartford continually grew adding more and more businesses until it became the enchanting town we know today.
