Located at 1080 Route 32 near the intersection of Raymond Hill Road, the former Norwich-New London Drive-in has been closed for decades.

The site it occupied was recently purchased, and crews have been clearing the land.

As we prepare a story on the future of the drive-in, we’d like to revisit its past.

Did you visit with friends, romantic partners, or parents? Do you remember what movie you saw there? What did the drive-in mean to you?

If you’re interested in being a part of this story, please email reporter Dan Drainville at d.drainville@theday.com or call him at (860) 701-4236.
