                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       The consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by CONNECTICUT WATER SERVICE, INC. (the Company), without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
to a fair statement of the results for interim periods.  Certain information
and footnote disclosures have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these

statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report
on 10-K.

         The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of

income applicable to common stock by the average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the respective periods as detailed:

                 CONNECTICUT WATER SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY


PART I, ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                  AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

LIQUIDITY AND CORPORATE RESOURCES

         At March 31, 1994 the Company had $6,726,000 of unused lines of
interim bank loan credit available.

         On January 4, 1994, the Subsidiary issued a $4,050,000, 6.94%, Series
V, First Mortgage Bond, maturing January, 2029, the proceeds of which were used
to redeem the 9 3/8%, Series L, and 8 1/2%, Series O, First Mortgage Bonds.  An
additional $8,000,000, 6.94%, Series V, First Mortgage Bond was issued on March
15, 1994.  The 30,000 shares of $100 par, 9 1/2% Preferred Stock, with an
outstanding balance of $3,000,000, was redeemed with a portion of the proceeds
of this transaction.  The remaining $5,000,000 was invested in treasury
securities until the Series P, First Mortgage Bond is redeemed on May 1, 1994.

RESULT OF OPERATIONS

         THE FOLLOWING FACTORS HAD A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT UPON THE COMPANY'S NET
INCOME FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1994 AS COMPARED WITH THE NET
INCOME FOR THE SAME PERIOD LAST YEAR.

         Net income applicable to common stock for the three months ended March
31, 1994 increased from that of March 31, 1993 by $87,000, or $.02 per average
common share, on an increased number of average common shares.  This
improvement resulted from a $121,000 decrease in interest and debt expense
partially offset by a $21,000 decrease in operating income and a $13,000
decrease in other income and deductions.

         The decrease in interest and debt expense reflects the reduction in
the long-term debt interest cost achieved by 1993 and 1994 long- term debt
refinancings.

         Operating revenues increased $104,000, or 1.2%, reflecting greater
residential water consumption in 1994 as compared to last year.

         The $125,000 increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable
to increased income taxes related to greater taxable income, $93,000, increased
maintenance expense primarily due to an increase in weather related main and
service breaks, $57,000, increased depreciation expense, $20,000, and a $22,000
increase in taxes other than income taxes.  These increases were partially
offset by a $67,000 reduction in operation expenses due primarily to a
reduction in employee benefit costs.

         The decrease in other income (deduction) is primarily due to a
decrease in the allowance for funds used during construction.
