This was the home of Reverend Benjamin Tallmadge and his son, Major Benjamin Tallmadge, still a private home. Major Tallmadge is remembered as a sculpture on the facade of Setauket School and the actions of the Culper Spy Ring and the Battle of Setauket are memorialized in murals in the school auditorium.

For about another week, you can stream the entire first season of TURN on AMC.  The second season premieres on April 13th. If you actually plan on visiting Setauket, the Emma S. Clark Memorial Library has a handy “Culper Spy Ring Map,” that you can pick up and the Three Village Historical Society has an exhibit called SPIES!. Finally, Setauket has some other claim to fames: home to Mick Foley the WF wrestler and one-time base for the bands Blue Oyster Cult and Twisted Sister.
