COURSE The river has two separate branches which converge near the intersection of Danforth Street and Winthrop Street ( U.S. 44 ) in Rehoboth, Massachusetts to form the main branch of the river. West branch The west branch (officially West Branch Palmer River) rises in a small unnamed pond near the eastern intersection of Tremont Street and Agricultural Avenue in Rehoboth. It continues roughly south from here until converging with the east branch. It flows approximately 9 km (5 mi). East branch The east branch (officially East Branch Palmer River) rises in Little Cedar Swamp in North Rehoboth and flows roughly southwest to converge with the west branch. It flows approximately 8 km (5 mi). Main branch After the two branches converge, the river flows roughly south-southwest through Rehoboth and Swansea before crossing into Rhode Island and flowing between Barrington and Warren for its last few miles. At its mouth, it converges with the Barrington River to form the Warren River . CROSSINGS Below is a list of all crossings over the Palmer River and its branches.
