Northville was settled in the 1750s, after Daniel Hine established a farm here, while still residing in the village center. It wasn't until 1760 that Hine built a farmhouse on the land. By 1773 Abel Buckingham would begin farming on the adjacent lot and thus, a farming community began. The combined property is now known as Hine-Buckingham Farms or Hunt Hill Farm. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
