Slatersville is a village on the Branch River in the town of North Smithfield, Rhode Island, United States.

The village was founded in 1803 by entrepreneurs Samuel and John Slater, in partnership with the Providence firm of Almy and Brown.

At the head of the Green stands the Slatersville Congregational Church, a steepled Greek revival building, which houses the oldest continuously operated Sunday School in America.

Kendall took a personal interest in the village and initiated many of the improvements which give Slatersville its traditional New England character.

[2] Today, Slatersville is owned by private individuals and, in 1973, it became a National Historic District, bounded by Main, Green, Church, and School Sts.
