Potowomut, Rhode Island

Potowomut is an isolated neighborhood and a penninsula in Warwick, Rhode Island. It was originally a village in the Warwick Township of Kent County. It can be called an enclave, since there is no overland connection to the rest of the city of Warwick. Nathanael Greene (an American general) was born here in 1742.
