From the great stone dam in Lawrence to the Atlantic Ocean in Newburyport, we are the Valley of the Merrimack. In order to maintain an active presence in the Merrimack Valley, the Valleys of Haverhill and Lawrence have merged together to form this new Valley within the geological bounds of the Merrimack River.
