This boundary marker originally hung on Country Way; now it resides inside the Little Red Schoolhouse, home to the Scituate Historical Society.
Many thanks to Carol and Nancy for their warm welcome and tour of the Scituate Historical Society’s many holdings! This year marks the 375th anniversary of our town and the 200th anniversary of the Scituate Lighthouse, so there’s big doings ahead – I look forward to the photographic opportunities.
375 years old…wow. And, to think it took 175 years to get the lighthouse!
It’s a very nice sign, I’m glad they didn’t simply discard it.
It’s a great sign. I can picture it hanging from a very old New England building or signpost. I’m looking forward to seeing photos from the festivities.
Isn’t it great? They were all over town and were starting to disappear or be vandalized, so the decision was made to replace them. Thank goodness someone thought to ask the Historical Society if they’d be interested in this one!
