It is covered by a hipped roof now ‘asphalt-shingled in its main portion, and a chimney rises at each ‘ $ end. The entrance elevation, facingsouth, has in its center, a two- - story gabled pavilion or projection, pierced.by the front door and one ‘ window above, whiGh houaoo the prinoinal staircase. Phi doorway has a - -- Doric surround with fluted pilasters and a pediment which is probably a 20th-century "restoration’t or application; there is-a secondary en- trance on the north side of the building. A slightly-projecting brick belt course runs between stories, and there is a molded wooden eaves - cornice. The windows have new twelve-over-twelve double-hung sash set in plain wood frames with molded sills; there are segmental arches in the brickwork over the windows of the first story. I-, The first floor of the building was originally a single large . , Ri room with a fireplace’ at each end, but has now been divided, with the ‘ n-i east end converted into four small rooms now used for display, storage, and toilets. The old floor is covered by modern composition tile. - There is a high wainscot of horizontal boarding to window-sill level; Z above, walls and ceiling are plastered. , ‘ $ -f The second floor, also originally one room, now has been par- titioned across its east end to allow for a shallow kitchen. Rear stairs are set in the northeast corner. Above a boarded wainscot reaching to the sills of the high-placed windows, walls are plastered; the ceiling n is plastered along the inner side of the hipped roof, above the wooden --4 trusses. The hardwood floors are’ later replacements.’ Recent repova tions include paintingthe plaster walls white; andtreatment of the wainscoting and wooden work with ‘a mixture of paint and ‘glaze in a dark ,z H brown color simulating the color discovered underneath later paint layers. Throughout the building, trim is very simple. Both the main stair at south center and the secondary one in the northeast corner, nrobaly added later are enclosed, of U-shape, and have plain open railings of : ‘ long boards. Windows and doors are very modestly trimmed; some of their ‘ $ - plain, mitered architraves are probably original. The windows were ‘$ ‘ equipped in 1965 with folding interior shutters copied from 18th-century $ $ models and such were quite likely in place originally to allow for ‘. - ‘fl darkening the rooms. ,The two remaining fireplaces, with splayed hearths,* -‘‘ at the west end of’ each floor are completely devoid of mantels or other - surrounding trim; the, matching fireplaces?at’the eat:endi’ofth"bñiid_ ing have been covered over.

It has been -altered -in-the course of a succession’of uses - but remains in good condition and close to its original appea±’ance. $ o - Historically, it has a first significance in being the first ‘ -- brick-built, permanently-purposed school structure in Providence and one of the first free schools in the United States. Moses Brown had o called for various school constructions in Providence in 1768, and-- $ ‘ although his proposal was voted down by the town--it was somehow re- solved, according to Staples’s Annals of the Town of Providence, t1to -‘ build a brick school house, 301 x hO’ and two stories high, near the court house."

  • Chapter 5 Archaeological Historic Resources
    Route 116 Scenic Byway Corridor Management Plan July 2013 Historic and Archaeological Resources C H A P T E R 5 Route 116 Scenic Byway Introduction The Route 116 Scenic Byway is steeped in the local history of the towns along the Byway. The fertile valley lowlands and surrounding uplands were once occupied by Native Americans, who hunted, fished, and cultivated the floodplains. Footpaths were worn along river valleys through the Berkshire Hills, where hunting and fishing camps were located. Europeans later used these paths to settle the upland areas west of the Connecticut River Valley. Over time the paths were changed and improved for use by carriages, railroads, and automobiles. Today, Route 116 follows a similar route to the trail that was used by Native Americans. It travels through a landscape that varies from the flat river bottom lowlands to the forested uplands spotted with open agricultural land. The villages, homes, and farms along the Byway help tell the story of a region rich in natural resources, agricultural and industrial ingenuity. In the Connecticut River Valley agriculture dominated, while the advent of the railroad brought additional industries and residents to the area. In the highlands, the use of water power for mills created small villages, while the outlying areas were used for grazing land and forests were used for lumber. The towns ebbed and flowed as new technologies and transportation improvements changed the nature of manufacturing. The communities in the Berkshires were settled later than the communities in the eastern section of the Byway. The hilly topography and rocky soil made building and farming very challenging, as did the uncertainties inherent to life in the virtual wilderness during the French and Indian Wars (mid 1700s).

The Schoolhouse Problem: New Solutions for Preserving Historic and Obsolete Buildings in Rural New Hampshire Abstract What options exist for public or nonprofit stewards of historic buildings in rural New Hampshire to re-use their properties for purposes other than museums? Over 200 historical societies exist in the Granite State, and of those, more than 40 own or manage multiple properties. These buildings – often schoolhouses, Grange halls, churches, etc. – are seldom open to the public and can be burdensome for volunteer-based organizations like historical societies
