Compiled and written by: Earle G. Shettleworth, Jr. Architectural Historian Maine Historic Preservation Commission JAMES H. MUNDY State Historic Preservation Officer INTRODUCTION Like most American cities, Bangor has undergone major changes during the twentieth century. A great fire in 1911 destroyed both commercial and residential areas, while the urban renewal of 1968 substantially altered the business district. The impression re­ sulting from these events, combined with many losses of individual buildings, is that the city lacks the historic resources enjoyed by other communities. In actuality, the tremendous growth which Bangor experienced in the nineteenth century has left the city with six residential areas which contain a high concentration of historic and/or arch­ itecturally significant structures.

    West Newbury Historic Sites Survey

    WEST NEWBURY HISTORIC SITES SURVEY For the West Newbury Historical Commission Caleb Moody House, ca. 1659, 803 Main Street (WNB.116) Stacy Spies and Wendy Frontiero Historic Preservation Consultants June 2018 ABSTRACT The purpose of this project was to undertake a historic resource survey of significant historical and architectural resources located in the Town of West Newbury with the goal of building a comprehensive survey that encompasses all buildings over 100 years of age in West Newbury. The work built upon survey work undertaken by West Newbury history community volunteers in the 1970s, a handful of buildings surveyed in 2011 by a West Newbury Historical Commission (WNHC) member, and five buildings surveyed in 2016 by a historic preservation consultant. A target list provided by the WNHC, was used as a starting point for the survey. Buildings along Main Street were the primary target area for the study. The majority of buildings surveyed date from the 1650s to the 1850s. All but five of the primary buildings in the survey were originally constructed as dwellings. Only two primary buildings in the survey are not presently in use as residences. Form B – Building inventory forms were prepared for 116 primary buildings and 31 outbuildings. Form A – Area inventory forms were prepared for three (3) areas. National Register contexts were identified in the areas of: Architectural Development during the Colonial Period (1700-1775); Settlement during the Colonial and Federal Periods (1680-1843); Comb Making and Shoe Manufacturing Industries in West Newbury during the Early and Late Industrial Periods (1830-1905); Architectural Development during the Early Industrial Period (1830-1870); and, Agriculture in West Newbury during the Late Industrial and Early Modern Periods (1850-2014).

In 1885 a private corp­ oration, the Reading Water Company, was chartered to provide this service. Study committees constituted by the -town, however, recommended that the town take over this respon­ sibility, and the issue was settled by the General Court in favor of the town in 1889. A Board of Water Commissioners composed of Lewis Bancroft, George Abbott,and Edward Nichols was elected.
