Histoire

Peu après la fondation de Southampton en 1640, des colons se déplacèrent vers l'est dans un territoire nommé Sagaponack et Mecox par les indiens Shinnecock. À l'extrémité de l'étang de Sagg ils établirent une colonie appelée Bullhead et renommée plus tard Bridgehampton -- après la construction d'un pont enjambant l'étang. Le Sagg Bridge fut construit en 1686 par Ezekiel Sandford. Le pont était un lien entre Mecox et Sagaponack puis il donna son nom à la localité de Bridgehampton.
