The Southport sticker, for the town that rebuilt its harbor after 1779 and shipped onions to the world. A glossy kiss-cut vinyl sticker of the Southport vintage retro logo in black, for the laptop, the water bottle or the notebook.

This is the smallest, cheapest way to carry Southport around, and the stocking stuffer that actually gets used. Buy a few: one for the laptop, one for the car, one for the kid who is away at school.

This indoor kiss-cut sticker is made from durable 100% glossy vinyl with a strong adhesive that applies quickly, smoothly, and without bubbles. It comes in multiple sizes with a white or transparent base, and the kiss-cut backing stays intact for easy peeling and a precise shape. Not waterproof.

Settled in 1639 as Mill River within Fairfield, with a grist mill by 1662 and a wharf by 1769, the village was burned by British and Hessian troops in July 1779; only the c.1766 Meeker House survived. The merchants rebuilt it house by house in the Federal and Greek Revival styles and incorporated it as the Borough of Southport in 1831.

By the 1890s Southport Harbor was shipping about a hundred thousand barrels a year of the Southport Globe onion to New York and the southern ports. The captains’ houses still line Harbor Road and Pequot Avenue, the 1894 Pequot Library stands in Richardsonian stone, and the harbor is one of the prettiest on the Sound. That village is the mark on this piece.

All Southport Connecticut Items

Our Southport logo carries an oyster over "Connecticut · Est. 1636" — the shared shoreline emblem of every Merlin Classics Connecticut town, marking the founding of the Connecticut Colony. Printed black-and-white with the worn look of an old oyster-crate label or shoreline signage, the oyster reads as the Connecticut shore in shorthand: the Sound, the harbors, the shellfish beds. It suits Southport especially well — this was a working harbor that shipped oysters right alongside its famous onions.

Then came the war. In July 1779, the day after British forces burned Fairfield, they put Mill River to the torch as well — a raid carried out by British regulars, Hessian jägers, and Loyalist troops that left almost nothing standing. Only one house, the Meeker House of about 1766, survived. What makes Southport remarkable is what happened next: instead of fading, the village rebuilt itself from the waterline up, in the crisp Greek Revival and Federal styles of the new republic. The district you can walk today is almost entirely a post-1779 creation — a town that turned its own destruction into one of the finest harbor-village streetscapes in Connecticut.

Why People Visit Southport Connecticut

People come to Southport for one of the best-preserved harbor villages on the Connecticut shore: Greek Revival houses built by shipping and banking wealth, a stone library, and a quiet yacht harbor on Long Island Sound. It's small, refined, and walkable — a village that rebuilt itself after 1779 and has kept its 19th-century streetscape intact ever since.
