a bit of history
Have you ever wondered about the origin of the name "Slack's Oyster House & Grill"? The restaurant's name pays homage to Plainville's early history and the town's nickname, "Slackville." Benjamin Slack, an affluent landowner, earned this nickname during Plainville's early days.
Plainville was settled in 1661 and was part of Dedham before becoming part of Wrentham in 1673. The area was named after the abundance of geographical plains in the region, and in 1856, Plainville became an official town after the establishment of a post office.
Bordering North Attleboro, MA, Plainville shares a historic marker called the Angle Tree Stone, which divides the boundaries between the old Massachusetts Bay Colony and Plymouth Bay Colony. This marker is featured in the official town seal.
Aside from its notable veterans, such as George Robert Twelves Hewes, a Revolutionary War veteran who participated in the Boston Tea Party and the Battle of Rhode Island, Plainville has a rich history that is reflected in the town's landmarks and even its restaurants.
