Surry
Surry is a town in Hancock County, incorporated on June 21, 1803 from the township T6 EPR.
Once an active fishing, farming and lumbering community, it is now primarily residential with modest tourism and fishing supplementing the local economy.
The town's Newbury Neck extends over six miles from the mainland, a virtual island surrounded by Morgan Bay and Union River Bay. This and the Patten Bay area provide scenic attractions for residents and visitors alike.
A group of over 100 amateurs in the Surry Opera Troupe performed in the Soviet Union in 1986.
Surry is just southwest of Ellsworth on Maine Route 172 where it intersects with Route 176. A growing community over the past thirty years, its population jumper thirty-six percent in the 1990-2000 decade.
