Old Town Centre
Bring a little Boxborough home.
Metal Art Sign · 7 × 5 inches
An indoor wall near the entryway or desk is somewhere you pass often, with time to notice the sign's picture between setting down your keys and the next task. Boxborough's church, Cobleigh house and parsonage sit within one old town-center view, giving neighboring buildings room to be noticed together.
The frontispiece of Boxborough's 1891 history shows the Congregational church, Cobleigh house and parsonage around the old town centre. The full streetscape is the subject. It records neighboring buildings as a shared village setting, where domestic and community life stood close together.
The streetscape connects a home with community gathering places, keeping Boxborough's village relationships as important as any single building in the scene. Give the sign a place indoors where you can notice its picture during the day.
