The Cutter House is an historic home at 60 Gilman Road in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. Built in 1730, over a century before today's Yarmouth was incorporated, it is the oldest extant building in the town. It was built for Ammi Ruhamah Cutter, the first minister of the now-demolished Meetinghouse under the Ledge, which stood around 150 yards (140 m) to the west, in the same strip of land between Gilman Road and Lafayette Street (Maine State Route 88), between 1729 and 1836. It stands almost directly across Gilman Road from the Pioneer Cemetery, which was established a year later. The home, the Pioneer Cemetery and the nearby Ledge Cemetery are all that remain of this early settlement.Perez B. Loring lived at the Cutter House in the mid-19th century, after it was no longer a manse. For the second half of the 20th century, it was home to Charles and Anita Stickney, who purchased it from Henry Pennell Frank (1872–1948), who is interred in the Ledge Cemetery. The home is two storeys, 4,595 square feet (426.9 m2), with a hip roof. It has five bedrooms and four bathrooms amongst its fourteen total rooms.

Pioneer Cemetery, also known as the Pioneers Burial Ground and the Indian Fighters Cemetery, is a historic cemetery in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. Dating to 1731, it was the first public burial place in Old North Yarmouth, which was then part of the Province of Massachusetts Bay.

The Meetinghouse under the Ledge, also known as the Old Ledge Meetinghouse, was a church that stood in present-day Yarmouth, Maine, between 1729 (when the town was North Yarmouth, Province of Massachusetts Bay) and 1836 (sixteen years after Maine's admittance to the Union). It was the ninth church founded in Maine.Named for the ledge that rises to the west of its former location, only the church's eastern doorstep remains, beside today's Garrison Lane.

The Captain Joseph Drinkwater House is an historic home at 146 Gilman Road in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. Built in 1844, an architectural survey undertaken in 2018 found it had "important ties to Yarmouth history", for it was the home of the seafaring Drinkwater family for over a century.Sea captain Joseph Drinkwater built the house, which stands at the intersection of Princes Point Road, and it remained in his immediate family until 1873. In 1902, Sumner Drinkwater, another sea captain, purchased the property. It was in his family's possession for 77 years.The home's English-style barn, which is connected to the main structure, also retains its architectural integrity.As of 2019, the property was the home of Jeremy Fischer, a member of the Maine House of Representatives.

Pleasant Street is a historic street in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. It was formerly part of the Atlantic Highway (or New England Route 1), a precursor to U.S. Route 1. It connects to Lafayette Street, part of today's Maine State Route 88, at Pleasant Street’s southern and northern ends. It has existed since at least 1761, which is when a milestone was placed on the street, on the order of Benjamin Franklin, due to its being on the King's Highway, to denote its distance from Boston, Massachusetts. As part of his duties, Franklin conducted inspections of the roads that were used for delivering mail. One method of charging for mail service was by mileage, so Franklin invented an odometer to measure mileage more accurately. The King's Highway, as a result, morphed into the Post Road. In the mid-19th century, the street became the home of several notable sea captains, due to its proximity to Yarmouth Harbor at the northern end of the street. It is here that the road's elevation drops around 65 feet (from 75 feet (23 m) to 10 feet (3.0 m)) over the course of around 500 feet (150 m). A 2021 Historic Preservation Advisory Ordinance identified ten Local Historic Landmarks, three Historic Districts and three Historic Objects. Many are located in the Gilman Road and Pleasant Street areas, which leads to the possibility of it being a future historic district.

Ledge Cemetery, also known as the Cemetery under the Ledge, is a historic cemetery in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. Dating to 1770, it stands on Gilman Road, around 450 feet (140 m) southwest of the older and smaller Pioneer Cemetery. Some headstones bear dates earlier than 1770, for many burials — such as that of Revd. Nicholas Loring — were removed from the older cemeteryThe original First Parish Congregational Church, known as the Old Ledge Meetinghouse, stood near the site between 1730 and 1818. Its first pastor was Reverend Ammi Ruhamah Cutter. Tristram Gilman, for whom Gilman Road is named, was the fourth pastor. He served in the role for forty years, and was buried in the Ledge Cemetery upon his death in 1809, aged 73. His wife, Elizabeth Sayer, is buried beside him.Several sea captains are also interred here, including those from the Drinkwater family. Captain Theophilus Drinkwater, son of Allen and Hannah Drinkwater, gave his name to nearby Drinkwater Point Road.Of a settlement that originally contained a school, a tavern and a cemetery, only the cemetery and the ledge doorstep of the church remain.

Riverside Cemetery is a historic cemetery in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. Several prominent early business owners, sea captains and other townspeople are buried in the cemetery, including Leon Gorman, former president of L.L.Bean, which was founded by his grandfather, Leon Leonwood Bean. Although it was founded in 1869, Riverside Cemetery has graves dating to the 1700s. The cemetery's oldest burials are on the northern side; the more recent ones are on the southern side. A long driveway, which leads to another cemetery, separates the two. Of all burials at the cemetery between 2018 and 2020, 65% were burials of cremated remains.Holy Cross, a Catholic cemetery, is attached to Riverside to the east. It was established by Father Joseph Quinn, pastor of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, in the early 20th century. They both sit about 50 feet (15 m) above Yarmouth Marina, immediately to the northwest.

The Mitchell garrison was an important building in what was, at the time, North Yarmouth, Province of Massachusetts Bay. Built in 1728, on the town's lot number 91, it stood at the rear of today's Holy Cross Cemetery on a bluff around 50 feet (15 m) immediately above the Royal River. It was used as a blockhouse, within a stockade, during the Indian wars. A tunnel was built from the home's cellar to the river. The dirt path that looks like it leads to the water is actually the town's original stage road, formerly lined with elm trees. As North Yarmouth's stagecoach travel increased in popularity, the stockade was removed and the home was enlarged to accommodate overnight guests. The original structure was made of clapboard; the extension, added on the northern side, was clad with shingles. The home's first owner was Jacob Mitchell (c. 1672–1744), a dean and a founder of the nearby Meetinghouse under the Ledge, which stood between 1729 and 1836. His son, Jacob III, also became a deacon there. Mitchell's family lived in the house between around 1729 and 1799, when one of Mitchell's sons, David, owned it. The building later became the home of the Whitcombs, whose name is preserved on a street off Princes Point Road. It was demolished about 1900, and the farm land was purchased in 1916 to be replaced by the cemetery. The cemeteries occupy what was the northern end of today's Smith Street.

The Gilman Manse is an historic home at 463 Lafayette Street in Yarmouth, Maine. Built in 1771, making it one of the oldest extant buildings in the town, it was originally the home of Tristram Gilman, the fourth minister of the now-demolished Meetinghouse under the Ledge, which stood around 900 feet (270 m) to the northeast between 1729 and 1836. It succeeded the Cutter House, at 60 Gilman Road, as the parsonage for the church.In 1905, John Calvin Stevens was hired to undertake a renovation of the property. It was the home of Arthur E. Marks (1853–1917) in 1911, and of Merrill and Grace Haskell from 1928.

Atwell's Creek is a former watercourse in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. It is named for John Atwell, who married Elizabeth Felt, daughter of Joshua.Flowing into the southern edge of Yarmouth harbor, it was used from the early 18th century to power various mills, the first being Massachusetts native Gilbert Winslow's sawmill in 1720. The creek received its nickname of Folly's Creek at this time, because Winslow's venture was expected by many people to fail, but it proved to be "a profitable concern." The creek was "a considerable watercourse then"; now, though, it is nothing more than a tidal inlet.

Princes Point Road is a prominent street in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. It runs for about 1.93 miles (3.11 km) from Lafayette Street (State Route 88) in the north to Sunset Point Road in the south. It was one of the first streets laid out in the town when it was centered around the Meetinghouse under the Ledge in the 18th century. Gilman Road, another of the early roads in the area, intersects Princes Point Road near its northern end. In the late 19th century, trolleycars of the short-lived Portland and Yarmouth Electric Railway passed Princes Point Road en route to Yarmouth's village center after the town's population had moved away from the Broad Cove area. Yarmouth's West Side Trail crosses Princes Point Road between Gilman Road and Morton Road. The road is named for the Paul Prince (1720–1809), who served for Massachusetts in the American Revolutionary War.

Yarmouth Marina is a natural harbor and estuary of Casco Bay, and is located adjacent to the town of Yarmouth, Maine, United States. It is situated on the Royal River, around 0.5 miles (0.80 km) southeast of the town center, in an area known as Lower Falls. Today it functions solely as a marina. Historically a harbor, due to its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, into which the Royal River flows via Casco Bay, less than a mile away, ships were built in the harbor mainly between 1818 and the 1870s, at which point demand declined dramatically.
