Longest Candy Counter, Littleton, New Hampshire, USA


Certified by the Guinness Book of World Records, Chutter General Store in Littleton (ten miles north of Franconia) has the longest candy counter in the world at 111 feet 11 inches. Quite a claim to fame for candy lovers everywhere. Littleton is also the midway point between Boston, Massachusetts and Montreal, Canada.

They also sold some other rather odd stuff.......

......and why someone would want this I have no idea.

The Ammonoosuc River flows through the downtown.....

.... and is spanned by a covered footbridge.

A nearby delivery truck mirror helped me with this self-portrait.

  1. We've been there a few times. One Saturday Eppie and I arrived at opening time at the great bookstore on Main Street to purchase the 2nd or 3rd Harry Potter book on the day of its release.

    1. How cool is that - I saw the bookstore but didn't go in. You drove down from Maidstone I presume.

  2. Oh, boy. I'll bet they've got black jelly beans.

    1. Probably ten different types if that's even possible - how many ways can one make licorice.
