Town of Panton

Panton VT’s entire western border is made up of Lake Champlain, so there are many stories recounting Revolutionary War era events that took place here.  None so locally famous as the burning of the American Fleet in Peter Ferris’ Bay, now called Arnold’s Bay.  However, Panton is much more than lake front property.  The rich soil and flat land are great for agriculture, and for centuries locals have quarried and used a native stone, known as Panton Stone for building foundations, fireplaces, landscaping and walls.
