Thirty-One-Mile Stone
Bring a little Bolton home.
Rocks Glass · Clear · 10 oz
After setting out water for a visit, there is a little time to look at the picture on the glass. Bolton's Thirty-One-Mile Stone gives the picture a broad roadside marker, with distance to Boston carried by one modest local landmark.
Bolton's Thirty-One-Mile Stone marks the road distance to Boston. Frank O. Branzetti photographed the broad stone for the Historic American Buildings Survey on April 3, 1941. The record preserves a roadside landmark and a measure of connection between a valley town and the city.
The stone connects Bolton with the road to the city, a particular way to keep the town's place within a larger regional journey in view. It can be a useful gift for the table at home, with a particular place to talk about alongside the drink.
