Barnstable is the name of one of the seven villages within the Town of Barnstable , Massachusetts.

The Village of Barnstable is located on the north side of the town, centered along

"Old King's Highway" (Massachusetts Route 6A), and houses the County Complex of Barnstable ...

Barnstable Village is also home to the Crocker Tavern, which was built around 1754

and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

The Crocker Tavern served as a stagecoach stop, an inn,

and an important meeting place into the mid-19th century.

Cornelius Crocker, one of the wealthiest men on the Cape, was the first keeper of the tavern.

Under the stewardship of Crocker, the inn became the central meeting place

for American patriots including James Otis prior to, and during, the Revolutionary War.[6]
